ABSTRACT A detailed overview of heat pipes is presented in this paper, including a
historical perspective, principles of operations, types of heat pipes, heat pipe performance …

The expectation of sustainable development of energy and environment has widely attracted
public׳ s attention, and the high-efficiency heat transfer device is greatly needed. As a new …

Over the last several decades, several factors have contributed to a major transformation in
heat pipe science and technology applications. The first major contribution was the …

Pulsating (or oscillating) heat pipes (PHP or OHP) are new two-phase heat transfer devices
that rely on the oscillatory flow of liquid slug and vapor plug in a long miniature tube bent …

In the present study, investigation of chaotic flow in a two-dimensional closed-loop pulsating
heat pipe has been carried out numerically. Constant temperature boundary conditions have …

This paper deals with thermally induced meniscus oscillations in a two-phase system
consisting of a liquid plug and a vapor bubble in a capillary tube of circular cross-section …

The present review covers the heat transfer literature published in 2004 in English
language, including some translations of foreign language papers. Though extensive, some …

Experimental observations of dropwise condensation of water vapor on a chemically
textured surface of glass and its detailed computer simulation are presented. Experiments …

Global thermal performance modeling of Pulsating Heat Pipes (PHPs) requires local, spatio-
temporally coupled, flow and heat transfer information during the characteristic, self …

This article deals with the numerical modeling of the pulsating heat pipe (PHP) and is based
on the film evaporation/condensation model recently applied to the single-bubble PHP (Das …
