Abstract: | An equation to determine the optimum position of the partition separating a heat pipe into evaporator and condenser regions in a heat pipe heat exchanger was formulated by minimizing the total thermal resistance of the heat path. The optimal position of the partition plate for various operating conditions was found and analysed. Some improvements of thermal efficiency could be achieved. |
