Numerical Study on the Transient Thermal Performance of a Two-Phase Closed Thermosyphon

The transient thermal performance of phase change and heat and mass transfer in a two-phase closed thermosyphon are studied with computational fluid dynamics (CFD). A CFD model based on the volume of fluid technique is built. Deionized water is specified as the working fluid of this thermosyphon. Th...
