... a theoretical model to simulate the behavior of liquid slugs and vapor plugs in both closed-loop and open-loop PHPs with two turns. The model solved for the pressure, temperature, plug position, and heat transfer rates. The most significant conclusion was that the majority of the heat transfer (95%) is due...

..., and saturation temperature at which the condensation is carried out, have been incorporated. The importance of higher order effects neglected in the simulation is discussed. The results of model simulation are compared with the experimental data. After validation, a parametric study is carried out for cases...
