Heat Pipe Demonstrator

The document describes a heat pipe demonstrator device that consists of three cylindrical pipes - a heat pipe made of stainless steel, a copper pipe, and another stainless steel pipe. The device allows comparison of heat transfer rates between the different pipes. One end of each pipe is electrically heated while the other ends are immersed in small heat sink tanks. Temperature sensors along the pipes and in the tanks measure temperature distribution and rise over time. The heat pipe shows nearly isothermal temperature distribution and faster heating of the sink tank, revealing its superior thermal conductivity compared to the conventional copper and stainless steel pipes.

HEAT PIPE DEMONSTRATOR

DESCRIPTION:-
It is a super-conducting device and involves the transfer of
heat by boiling and condensation of a fluid and hence
transfer of heat takes place under nearly isothermal
condition. In this apparatus the comparison of heat pipe
with the copper pipe as good conductor of heat and with the
stainless steel pipe as same material of construction is made.
It consists of three identical cylindrical conductors in respect of geometry. One end of these is heated electrically
while there are small capacity tanks acting as heat sinks at the other end. The unit consists of a heat pipe a
copper pipe and a stainless distribution and the heat transfer rate is noted in terms of the temperature rise in the
heat sink tanks. The performance of the heat pipe as a super-conducting device can be studied well in terms of
the temperature distribution along the length at a given instant and can be compared with other two members.
Nearly isothermal temperature distribution and fast rise of temperature in heat sink tank reveals the heat pipe
superiority over the conventional conductors.

EXPERIMENTS:-
 To determine the super thermal conductivity of Heat Pipe and to compare its working with best
conductor i.e. Copper Pipe & Stainless Steel Pipe as same material of construction.
 To plot the temperature v/s time response of three pipes.
