Abstract
Based on experimental studies, this paper discusses the variation tendencies of three non-dimensional parameters including Ja, Bo and Pr which consist of various operational parameters and characteristic parameters, and then analyses their effects on heat transfer performance of closed-loop pulsating heat pipes (PHPs) at startup stage and steady operation stage. Results indicate that at startup stage, the values of Ja and Bo increase over time as a whole, while the values of Pr decrease; at steady operation stage, the values of three parameters all fluctuate within a narrow range. The results also show that heat transfer is due mainly to the exchange of latent heat under the experimental conditions.
