Abstract. Devices called reverse thermosyphon enable passive heat transfer when the heat source is above the place of its receipt. This is often the case in solar installations for the preparation of hot water. The article concerns the determination of the possibility of using a two-phase inverted thermosyphon with two working factors in a passive downwards heat transport installation. The analysis was carried out on the basis of previous experimental studies. The height of the tested installation in one case was 1.5 m, in the second 18 m, at a heat load of 300, 600 and 900 W. Water and pentane was used as a working fluid inside the loop. Initial conclusions from the analysis confirm the possibility of using reverse thermosyphon with two working factors in the construction of a passive heat transport system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
