## Abstract Condensation heat transfer in a closed twoβphase thermosyphon is experimentally examined using two different types of test section. Test Section 1 is a straightβpipeβtype thermosyphon, whereas Test Section 2 has a largeβdiameter evaporator compared with a condenser to minimize entrainme
A thermosyphon with R113 as the working fluid employing fill ratios between 0.02 and 0.4, i.e. 2 and 40% of the evaporator volume, was experimentally and theoretically investigated. A critical heat flux (for which dry-out occurs) was measured which increases from about 104 W m -2 at 5% fill ratio to
