Experimental Study of Heat Transfer in the Steam Thermal Siphon Tube Channel

Abstract

The results of experimental studies of heat transfer into the thermo-syphon tube with different thermal loads are represented. Are examined two types of liquid as the working fluid. The values of temperatures in the steam channel of thermo-syphon tube are registered and the dependences of the coefficients of heat exchange on the power of heating element are obtained. The influence of thermal load and properties of liquid on the intensity of the processes of evaporation and condensation of working fluid in the thermo-syphon installation are established.
