Temperature and heat load distribution in rotating heat pipes
Abstract
An analysis is proposed for predicting the condenser wall temperature profile showing the effect of functions such as concentration of noncondensable gases and type of working fluid, condenser wall material and cooling medium. A prediction of the heat rejected ratio between a condenser operating with non-condensable gas present to that with pure vapor is given. The working fluids considered were Arcton 113 and Acetone and the non-condensable gases were nitrogen and carbon dioxide. The theoretical results obtained were checked with some experimental results using the above fluids and an agreement was obtained
