Effect of using silver nanofluid (De Ionize water mixed with silver nano and particles less than 100 nm.) on heat transfer characteristics of a two-phase closed thermosyphon at normal operating condition was investigated in this research. The thermosyphon made by copper tube with 7.5, 11.1 and 25.4 mm ID. The filling ratios of 30, 50 and 80% by evaporator length and aspect ratios of 5, 10, and 20 (Le/d (i) ) with vertical position. Pure water and DI water mixed with silver nanofluid of us as working fluid to compare. The working temperatures were 40, 50 and 60A degrees C. It was found that, the maximum hat transfer rate of 750.81 W, with aspect ratio of 20(diameter of 25.4 mm ID) and working temperature of 60A degrees C. The DI water mixed silver nanofluids more than approximate 70% to compare with pure water.
