- Predicting the performance of Pulsating Heat Pipes (PHPs) under normal and hyper-gravity conditions requires complex simulations and experiments. This paper is significant because it presents new measurements obtained on ESA’s Large Diameter Centrifuge (LDC) facility to validate the hyper-gravity predictions of a new 1D numerical model. The research directly underpinned a successful EPSRC grant proposal (EP/P013112/1) with 50 collaborators from academia and industry, and a European Space Agency MAP project (TOPDESS).
