Currently, I am working on the effect of different type of nanofluid on the performance of evacuated tube heat pipe solar collector.
Dear Dr. Adel
Kind regards..
In dealing with heat pipes charged with a nanofluid, you should consider the following points:-
1- The ability of the generated vapor inside the heat pipe to carry the nano-particles from the evaporator to the condenser sections.
2- The nano-particles should not settle down at the evaporator bottom due to gravity.
3- Heat pipe length is an important factor because long pipe may prevent successful circulation of nano-particles.
Wishing you all the best in your endeavor..
Yours Sincerely .. Aouf A. Al-Tabbakh
