Computational fluid dynamics model for a variable conductance thermosyphon

A variable conductance thermosyphon is a unique type of heat pipe that responds passively to changes in thermal environment because of the presence of non-condensable gas (NCG). In this study, we develop a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model to predict the behavior of a cylindrical-shaped varia...
