Abstract
This paper proposes a model to evaluate the performance of a two-phase thermosyphon loop based on microchannels. The model works for steady state and transient regimes and is based on the functional iteration method. The model provides as results the mass flow rate, temperature distribution, pressure drop, fluid inventory and the overall thermal resistance of the thermosyphon during transient operation.
