Abstract

A mathematical model and numerical calculating method for the dynamics of heat and mass transfer in the condensation zone of a cylindrical heat pipe have been developed. The model describes the combined problem of condensation of working fluid vapor on a metal-fiber capillary-porous structure, diffusion-filtration transfer of heat and condensate through the wick, condensate removal to the transport zone, thermal conductivity in the pipe wall, and heat removal from the outer surface of the wall to the cooling coolant

Keywords (in English)
