Experimental Investigation of heat Transfer Characteristics a Heat: exchanger

This project presents an experimental investigation on the performance of a heat pipe using Al¿O¿ nanofluid as the working fluid to enhance heat transfer characteristics. The study compares the thermal behavior of the heat pipe with conventional working fluid and Al¿O¿ nanofluid under varying heat input conditions. Key performance parameters such as heat transfer rate, thermal resistance, temperature distribution, and overall efficiency are evaluated. The results indicate that the use of Al¿O¿ nanofluid significantly improves thermal conductivity and reduces thermal resistance, leading to enhanced heat dissipation. The findings demonstrate the potential of nanofluid-based heat pipes for efficient thermal management in electronic cooling, renewable energy, and industrial applications.
