A little addition. 1: Most people learn in school that water boils of around 100C. This is only true in normal atmospheric condition. In a Vacuum water boils of around 18C. In a heat pipe it´s not pure vacuum, but its pretty close, so you might get it to work in as low temperature as 22-25C. Also, its depends in the depth of water. 2: The heat pipe just absorbs heat where there is water (or liquid). If you want to use it for a solar collector, you do want to fill it up quite a bit, almost as long as the heat collector elements go. This change the boiling point of water. The bolingpoint may be 22 degree at the very top, but it´s probably around 30 to 40 degree at the bottom (for a 1 ish meter long pipe). If the whole system is 50-60 degree it don´t matter... That is... if you want to collect heat, you do want to fill it up quite a bit. But if you want to cool something (like a processor), you just want to fill up a bit in the bottom. Basicly the part where there is water is cooling, the part there is steam is cooling. So how much you fill it deepens on what you suppose to do.

Ahh...heatpipes! Made some of these using Acetone a few years ago and wish I had thought to use something like that to hold the top on. I'll never forget the sound it made when the cap pushed off enough to ignite that vapor when I was soldering it on. Somehow, it didn't explode or even catch the liquid on fire (thankfully), but I got a nice "whoosh" out of the pipe. Definitely not one of my finer moments. I'm curious to see how your HT fluid compares with water. Water is an efficient choice even on its own, but it is just too cold in the winters to use it for a HT medium where I live. Are you planning on using vacuum tubes with these?

1:44 "its driving out the non-compressable gasses", Rather than non-compressible , you mean non-condensable. As oxygen and nitrogen are compressible at room temperature but don't condence at the heat pipe's working temperatures. And the non condensing gases get in the way of moving the condensing gas from moving heat from the boiler end to the condensing walls.

Could this work if the steam was in a ring pipe like the insulating coffee mugs with the bottom cut out i wanted to pass air through the center radially and have the middle outside lengthwise of the casing heated and air move through one end on the bottom and out the top fanned from the intake side up from the ceiling down to the floor to the lower part of the heater. Exhaust fanned from the top corner of the heater down to the floor for good air mixing.

Hi Robert Nice expiration on how a heat pipe works If you were to give the copper pipe or give a glass tube an outside coating of graphene would it then absorb sun light or direct heat sores and hold heat better that an uncoated copper pipe or glass tube with its standard black coating. As I believe graphene is very good at heat transfer.

The pipe has to be straight for this type of heat pipe. The gas has to move through the center of the pipe while the liquid flows down the sides. A curve inhibits that. The effect happens very rapidly and can transfer large amounts of thermal energy.

Great introduction - I always thought it was more complicated than that. The only concern I have is about pressure. If you seal both ends and manage to evaporate the working fluid completely, won't the internal pressure be very high? Is there a rule-of-thumb (or formula) for determining the maximum working fluid volume given a specific heat pipe volume? What is the failure mode for an over-pressured copper heat pipe (will the pipe rupture suddenly, a cap blow off at high speed, or a tiny leak slowly release the steam)?
@ThinkingandTinkering
@ThinkingandTinkering 10 жыл бұрын
I am sorry mate - but you are over thinking this. Your chances of blowing the pipe or getting a total vacuum this way are insignificant. As for the amount of fluid to use - experiment to find out - it won't take long but it's a small amount - you need to have some fluid in there all the time - so you need to consider your working temperature, fluid type and volume - with water in a 1.2m pipe for solar it's about 15mL. Failure mode is sudden rupture - but unless you plan on cooling a nuclear power plant this way you are not going to rupture the pipe

Water would be a better choice. Heat the water and transfer it to the house via insulated pipes. Water can hold a surprisingly large amount of BTUs (which you’ll need if you’re heating a home) and you can pipe the water throughout the house to distribute the heat better than a heat pipe. You can also heat the water during the days when it’s warm outside and use it later that night when the temps drop.

@@MichaelApproved If he needs to transfer heat from a solar thermal heat collector on the ground, he could use a heat pipe to transfer heat from a water storage tank to another one on top of his house. He'll need to insulate everything really well. He could then gravity feed hot water down someplace without a pump. This is only an efficient solution if he's only sending the water one direction. Otherwise, he'd be better off with a pumped system.

Tried this but ran into several problems. 1. I found the vacuum in the pipe caused the solder to be sucked inside - so it didn't seal and I could hear balls of solder rattling around inside. If I then heated the base of the pipe, I could hear a leak (I tried it several times with same result. To overcome this, I used valve fittings on the top - so when I heated the the fluid to the point it started to steam, I shut off the valve. 2. Despite doing this, the pipe did nothing when put out in the sun (average UK day of about 20 degrees C. I also tried heating with a hot air gun, but didn't feel that it was doing much. I couldn't tell if there was any fluid left inside - perhaps I'd over- boiled, so tried again (it's possible to open the valve and replace fluid with a syringe) - still same result. So, a couple of questions - A: should the valve system work (can't really tell if the valves are 100% sealed. B: it would be better to use the soldered cap method - but why did RMS's work, when mine simply sucked the solder in? C: If i get a working heat pipe using this method, what sort of performance can I expect in the UK? I'd like to use it to heat water for an outdoor shower - so perhaps have 15 heat pipes and a heat exchanges to run water into a sand box during the day so that there is a heat source for a shower in the evening - is this feasible across a normal range of UK weather conditions, or would it only work in strong sun during the summer months? Any advice, ideas welcome - thanks

The GeoDeaHolic The Heat pipe can enhance a stirling engine. However if you impeded the fluid flow of the heat pipe it will diminish its efficacy. What you could do is attach a TEG to the end of a Heat pipe two heat pipes and both ends of the teg and couple them to a heat sink and source. You could also take two acoustic lasers (thermoacoustic stirling engines) and run them in opposite phase, with heat pipes interconnecting the two resonating cavities, and tune the fluid like a heat pipe such that a small temp change/pressure change results on phase change and cavitation. From there use a pyroelectric sensor array with a driver circuit to store in a super cap to inverter type and you will have a heat pipe type thermoelectric generator, which theoretically can convert up to 90% of the heat flow to electric power. In the real world you will get about 30% which is till 3x better than Siebeck.

@KimberlyRPeacock
@KimberlyRPeacock 9 жыл бұрын
Using pyroelectric elements one needs not have a high temperature difference, rather one wants a high frequency temperature change, and you have that in cavitation. Also look into Sasers the acoustical analogue to the laser. If one had heat pipes attached to the resonators and had two resonators operating in opposite phase. I had thought I was the first person to come up with the idea of using pyroelectric elements as a teg (thermo electric generation) device but it seems a guy at Oak Ridge has already done work on this. Predicting 90% conversion possible. That is not the same as economical except in a few specialized uses. The driving of it using a saser is my idea, and the heat pipe and vapor chamber additions.
