Mathematical Modelling of Force Convection in a Two–Phase Thermosyphon in Conjugate Formulation

Abstract

Abstract.A nonlinear non-stationary problem of the conductive-convective heat transfer is addressed (under forced convection conditions) in the thermosyphon of rectangular crosssection. The thermal energy supply is carried out through the lower horizontal border. The mathematical model is formulated in dimensionless variables of "velocity vorticity vectorcurrent function -temperature". The current and temperature distribution lines are obtained, illustrating the effect of the Reynolds number on the thermodynamic structures formation in the analyzed object.
