Experimental Investigation of the Effect of Nano-Fluid on the Performance of Pulsating Heat Pipe, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Saeedi, Mohammad Hassan (Supervisor) ; Kazemzadeh Hannani, Siamak (Supervisor) ; Shafii, Behshad (Supervisor)
Abstract
Improving efficiency of heat exchangers has always been an important concern for the industry. Pulsating Heat Pipes (PHPs) are novel and efficient technology in the field of heat transfer. PHPs are widely used in solar water heaters, solar desalination systems, etc. In this research, thermal performance of Open Loop Pulsating Heat Pipes (OLPHPs) using three different ferrofluids (ferrofluid without surfactant and nanoparticles’ coating, ferrofluid with coating of nanoparticles, and ferrofluid with surfactant) is experimentally investigated. In addition, effects of charging ratio (20, 40, 60, and 80%), heating power (20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 100, 120, 140, 160, 180, 200, 240, 280, 320,...
