Abstract:

The computational investigation presented in this study focuses on understanding the heat transfer properties of a closed-loop pulsating heat pipe (CLPHP). In contrast to conventional heat pipes, the CLPHP examined in this research does not incorporate a wick material. This simplification facilitates easier modeling and analysis of the CLPHP's behavior. To assess the CLPHP's performance, flow visualization techniques were employed using ANSYS Fluent R22 software. Realistic operational conditions were simulated by applying appropriate boundary conditions to the CLPHP. The study employed water-water vapor and ethanol as the working fluids
