DETERMINATION AND TESTING OF TEMPERATURE CHARACTERISTICS OF HIGH EFFICIENCY HEAT TRANSFER DEVICES (HEAT PIPES)

Abstrak

The article describes the tests and determination of the temperature characteristics of highly efficient heat transfer devices (heat pipes (TT)), which can be used in heat and mass transfer devices, for example, in the process of drying vegetables and fruits. To test and determine the temperature characteristics of TT, a test setup for medium-temperature TT was created and a number of tests were carried out to determine how the dependence of the temperature change of the condenser and the TT evaporator at various angles of inclination, the working fluid, body material, TT wick material was selected, the influence of the number of mesh wick was determined. All characteristics are presented in graphs and tables.
