Abstract

Heat pipe was reviewed in former time which was in linear design. But in most cases, the heat pipe is needed in a bent shape. For instance, in a car, the heat transfer way from the engine to the radiator is not in linear. To move heat from parts in a computer i.e. central processing units of the computer may use non-linear heat pipe to reduce the heat generated in it. So the performance analysis for a bent heat pipe is badly needed to fulfill the current demand. In this research, a bent heat pipe was constructed and the performance analysis have been conducted on the bent heat pipe.
