Numerical simulation of heat and mass transfer in a closed two – phase geothermal thermosyphon

Mathematical model of the heat and mass transfer process in a two-phase thermosyphon with allowance for the coolant phase transformations is presented in this study. The formulated boundary-value problem was solved by the finite differences method. The numerical experiment results are presented and...

Description
Summary:Mathematical model of the heat and mass transfer process in a two-phase thermosyphon with allowance for the coolant phase transformations is presented in this study. The formulated boundary-value problem was solved by the finite differences method. The numerical experiment results are presented and the temperature fields are obtained for different operation times of the geothermal thermosyphon.
