The purpose of the present study is to examine the heat transport limitations in a screen mesh heat pipe for electronic cooling by theoretical analysis. Diameter of pipe was 6mm, and mesh numbers were 50, 100, 150, 200 and 250, and water was investigated as working fluid. According to the change of mesh number, wick layer, inclination and saturation temperature, the maximum heat transport limitations by capillary, entraintment, sonic and boiling were analyzed by a theoretical design method of heat pipe, including capillary pressure, pumping pressure, liquid friction coefficient in wick, vapor friction coefficient, etc. Based on the results, the capillary limitation in a small diameter of heat pipe is largely affected by mesh number and wick layer. Mesh number of 250 is desirable not to be used in pipe diameter of 6 mm, because capillary heat transport limitation decreases by the abrupt increase of liquid friction pressure due to the small liquid flow area. For the heat transport of 15 watt in 6mm diameter pipe, mesh number of 100 and one layer is an optimum wick condition, which thermal resistance is the smallest.

In this paper, a high-speed imaging and an image processing technique have been applied to detect the position of a meniscus as a function of time in the micro capillary flows. Two fluids with low and high viscosities, ethylene glycol and glycerin, were dropped into the entrance well of a circular capillary tube. The filling times of the meniscus in both cases of ethylene glycol and glycerin were compared with the theoretical models - Washburn model and its modified model based on Newman's dynamic contact angle equation. To evaluate the model coefficients of Newman's dynamic contact angle, time-varying contact angles under the capillary flows were measured using an image processing technique. By considering the dynamic contact angle, the estimated filling time from the modified Washburn model agrees well with the experimental data. Especially, for the lower-viscosity fluid, the consideration of dynamic contact angle is more significant than for the higher-viscosity fluid.

This study is focused on the experimental analysis of the noise induced by phase change of refrigerant at the entrance of capillary tube. The refrigerant is usually two-phase condition when it flowed into the capillary tube. At the entrance of capillary tube, the phase condition of refrigerant is formed by sub-cool control. If it has sufficient sub-cool temperature, all of the vapor refrigerants turned to liquid, which means there is only liquid. Otherwise, the gas is coexisted. Based on this theory, we experiment on each case by changing sub-cool temperature using refrigerant-supplying equipment. The noise level is measured for each case and compared.

소형분석시스템에서 미세채널의 상판이 제거되면 상판에 의한 빛 에너지 손실이 대폭 감소되어 광학측정법으로 대상을 분석할 때 장점을 갖는다. 본 연구에서는 상판이 없는 사각단면 미세채널 내 액체유동을 이해하려는 목적으로 실험과 전산유체역학 해석을 수행하였다. 개방형 사각단면 미세채널에서 입자추적기법으로 유속을 측정하였고, 채널의 단면적 변화에 따른 모세관 유동현상을 이론적으로 해석하였다. 단면의 너비와 높이가 각각 20 ${\mu}m$로 제작된 미세채널의 주입부에 물을 떨어뜨렸을 때 물은 오직 모세관 힘에 의해 미세채널을 따라 이동하였다. 액체의 젖음현상에 영향을 미치는 중요한 유동 파라미터는 채널의 크기와 표면장력, 점성 등으로 볼 수 있으며, 미세채널에서 액체 유동을 조절하는데 이용될 수 있다.

비포화 흐름에서 모세관 이력현상의 영향을 살펴보기 위하여 선행강우가 존재하는 지표면 경계조건하에서 이력현상을 고려한 경우와 고려하지 않은 경우에 대하여 종속변수가 모세관 압력수두인 Richards식을 수치해석하여 습윤전선의 전진 경향, 함수량 재분포현상, 침투율, 누가침투량 등을 비교 검토하였다. 비포화 흐름을 해석할 때 모세관 이력현상의 영향은 무시되어질 수 없고, 보다 정확한 비포화흐름의 해석은 이력현상을 고려함으로써 얻어질 수 있다. 만약 비포화 흐름을 해석할 때 이력현상을 고려할 수 없다면, 주마름곡선보다 주젖음곡선을 사용하는 것이 바람직하다.

This study is aimed to analyze the effects of heat pipe shape on the heat transfer in solar collector with a axial grooved heat pipe. In the design of a heat pipe. two of the most important criteria to be met are the operating temperature range and the maximum heat transport capacity, When the operating temperature range is known and the working fluid has been selected, the maximum heat transport capacity depends strongly on capillary pressure and liquid flow. The heat transport capacity of the heat pipe will depend on the geometry of the heat pipe, the wick structure. the vapor channel shape. groove number. cooling temperature. condenser length and pipe diameter. So various shapes are used for mathematical models of two-phase flow in grooved heat pipe. From the results. the adequate groove shape and scale are presented by considering the heat transport and capillary limitation.

The examinations of the operating mechanism of an oscillating capillary tube heat pipe (OCHP) using the visualization method revealed that the working fluid in the OCHP oscillated to the axial direction by the contraction and expansion of vapor plugs. The contraction and expansion were due to the formation and extinction of bubbles in the evaporating and condensing part, respectively The actual physical mechanism, whereby the heat which was transferred in such an OCHP was complex and not well understood. In this study, a theoretical model of the OCHP was developed to model the oscillating motion of working fluid in the OCHP. The differential equations of two-phase flow were applied and simultaneous non-linear partial differential equations were solved. From the analysis of the numerical results, it was found that the oscillating motion Of working fluid in the OCHP was affected by the operation and design conditions such as the heat flux, the charging ratio of working fluid and the hydraulic diameter of flow channel. The simulation results showed that the proposed model and solution could be used for estimating the operating mechanism in the OCHP.

This article provides detailed instructions for the correct installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of capillary gas chromatography (GC) columns. It emphasizes the importance of proper installation to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the column. The document covers various aspects such as column trimming, installation, conditioning, testing, storage, and ferrule selection. The installation process involves ensuring that the heated zones of the GC are cool before placing the column cage in the column oven. It is essential to avoid sharp bends or stress on the capillary column during installation and to connect the front end of the column into the GC inlet at the recommended insertion distance. The document also provides guidance on trimming the column, including the use of a ceramic wafer or capillary column cutter to achieve a clean, burr-free cut. For previously used columns, it recommends removing any capillary caps, positioning the nut and ferrule, and trimming 1-2 cm from the column. After installation, the column should be purged with carrier gas to remove any oxygen and avoid oxidizing the column. Conditioning the column involves ramping to the upper isothermal temperature limit and maintaining this temperature for a specified duration. It is crucial to maintain carrier gas flow during conditioning and not exceed the upper temperature limit of the column to avoid phase damage. The document also discusses testing column performance using a suitable method and performing a test injection to assess performance. It provides recommendations for column storage, including flame-sealing the capillary ends or using retention gaps for long-term storage. Additionally, it emphasizes the importance of routine maintenance and replacement of GC consumables to extend the column's lifetime. Ferrule selection is another important aspect covered in the article, with a variety of ferrule materials available for different applications. The characteristics of common ferrule options are presented in a table, including temperature limits, reusability, and suitability for specific detector types.
