This study utilizes an aqueous solution of n-Pentanol and copper nanoparticles in an aqueous solution of n-Pentanol on a heat pipe.. The copper nanoparticles used are 40 nm. The nanofluids are prepared and an aqueous solution of n-Pentanol is added to it at a concentration of 2 ml in one litre of DI water. From the comparison of the performance using both DI water and other fluids, it is found that, the thin porous coating layer formed by the nanoparticles suspended in nanofluids is a key effect of the heat transfer enhancement for the heat pipe using nanofluids. The results show the possibility of enhancing the thermal performance of heat pipe if copper nanoparticle in the aqueous solution of n-Pentanol is used as a working fluid. Finally, the thermal resistance of the nanofluid heat pipe tends to decrease by adding the aqueous solution of n-Pentanol in the copper nanofluid.
