Abstract

Wraparound heat pipes have been used for many years and have found a niche application in outside air handling units in hot and humid climates. They are used in conjunction with primary, chilled water cooling coils to enhance the efficiency of moisture removal and ensure that the process consumes minimal energy. The type of heat pipe employed is a gravity assisted thermosyphon which is formed into a loop and ‘wrapped’ around the main cooling coil.
