Abstract: Closed loop pulsating heat pipe is a small heat transfer device especially suited for thermal management of electronic application .The unique feature of CLPHP compared with conventional heat pipe is that, there is no wick structure to return the condensate to the evaporator section, thus there is no counter flow between the liquid and the vapour .This paper reviews an influence of various design parameter and operational orientation on a PHP,OHP. This paper attempt theoretical and experimental investigation and scrutinized that internal diameter of tube and orientation numbers of turn’s evaporator length, adiabatic length affect the performance of PHP,OHP. A filling ratio of 50% of its total volume is optimum.
Keywords: CLPHP, PHP,OHP.
