DOBSON, R. T.. Transient response of a closed loop thermosyphon. R&D j. (Matieland, Online) [online]. 1993, vol.9, pp.32-38. ISSN 2309-8988.
The transient response of a closed loop thermosyphon is considered. This loop was used to transfer heat from a heat source to a thermally coupled yet physically separated storage tank positioned above the heat source. A one-dimensional mathematical formulation of the equations of change has been derived. An explicit numerical solution technique was used to solve these equations and these theoretical results compared with experimentally determined results. Measured final tank temperatures differed by some 3 per cent from the numerical solution values. The numerical solution technique was then used to simulate a number of transients and these results have been presented.
