Abstract

The demand for energy is severally increased as the world’s population increases. Now a days use of nanofluids in heat recovery system for heat transfer enhancement is topic of interest. In this work two phase closed thermosyphon is used. The thermosyphon has main three components, an evaporator with a boiling enhancement structure, adiabatic section at the center and condenser. In this Experiment the effects of working fluid on the performance of the thermosyphon at different inclination will be consider with different types of nanofluids could be used as working fluids in two phase closed thermosyphon for different fill volume, inclination angle, and heat inputs by designing a suitable experimental set up. Some of the key features of nanaofluids revealed from the recent research work are better thermal conductivities as compared to the conventional solid–liquid suspensions, strongly non-linear temperature dependent effective thermal conductivity. An increase in critical heat flux under pool boiling conditions. The method tested by applying heat load to the thermosyphon as per application and also the condenser section is cooled by vessel with fluid pump and flow control arrangement. The testing of the thermosyphon will at inclination of 90°, 75°, 60°, 45°, 30° and 15° with respective horizontal axis to study the effect on heat transfer ability of the system.
