Özet
Energy consumption has been one of the most important issues that researchers have been concerned about over the last decade. Number of researches about new and renewable energy sources, have been increasing day by day. Researchers are looking on logical ways to use energy in addition to new, renewable energy sources. Especially in thermal systems, most of the energy lost occurs during heat transfer. Heat pipe systems appear as important devices that provide benefits by eliminating these heat and energy losses. Heat pipes systems transfer heat energy between two points with high performance values. Types of heat pipes and their detailed descriptions were investigated in this study. Oscillating heat pipes are relatively new systems that have quickly become the focus of research. They are extremely useful devices due to their ease of construction, simple design, and adaptability to almost every area. The study included a detailed description of oscillating heat pipes, their working mechanisms, theoretical investigations, and current applications.
