Study on the applying technology of the heat pipe used on the oil heating furnace

The key technical problem about heat pipe which is used on the heating furnace of oil field is studied in this paper: Firstly, the practical technology to control the heat pipe working temperature is provided according to heat transfer principle; secondly, an optimization method to control the smoke flowing resistance is putted forward for the furnace to be reformed. The practice gets the conclusion that the thermal efficiency will improve approximately 7.5% for the reformed furnace.
