An Assessment of Momentum Models for Two-phase Thermosyphon Loop
Two-phase thermosyphon heat exchangers are widely used in different industry fields. The fluid flow characteristic is very important for the design of thermosyphon. However
the existing two-phase models are not accurate enough for the simulation of two-phase thermosyphon loop .Therefore it is important to make an assessment of existing two-phase momentum models corresponding to thermosyphon loop features. The mathematical model of two-phase thermosyphon loop
has been developed in the paper. The predicted results from different models are compared with the experimental results of two-phase thermosyphon with refrigerants H2O
R113 and R600a. The comparison results show that the combination of Lorkhart-Martinelli frictional pressure drop model and Tom void fraction model is better than other models. Finally
the flow features of two-phase thermosyphon loop have been simulated. It is shown that for a specific loop
the mass flux increases and then decreases slowly with the increase of heat flux. A reasonable explanation is given to the phenomenon.
