在过去的十年中，人们对使用传统工作流体的热管传热进行了广泛的研究工作。近年来，世界各地的研究人员对使用基础液体中纳米尺寸固体颗粒悬浮液的热管传热进行了研究，以寻找新的机会。悬浮的纳米粒子有效增强了热管中基液的输运特性和传热特性。研究表明，与传统工质相比，纳米流体热管的热效率得到提高，热阻降低。本文对近年来热管中流体流动和纳米流体传热特性的研究进行了回顾和总结，并展望了纳米流体在热管中的进一步研究前景。
Extensive research work on heat transfer in heat pipe using conventional working fluids has been carried out over the past decade. Heat transfer in heat pipes using suspensions of nano meter–sized solid particles in base liquids have been investigated in recent years by various researchers across the world for finding new opportunities. The suspended nanoparticles effectively enhance the transport properties and heat transfer characteristics of base fluids in heat pipes. The study reveals an improvement in the thermal efficiency and reduction in the thermal resistance of heat pipe with nanofluids, than that of conventional working fluids. This paper reviews and summarizes recent research on fluid flow and the heat transfer characteristics of nanofluids in heat pipes and identifies perspective of nanofluids that can be used in heat pipes for further research.
