PURPOSE:To improve the heat transfer efficiency between two heat transfer media, the temperature difference which is reversible to each other, by a structure wherein the thermosyphon piercing a partition wall is swingably mounted about an axis point to the partition wall. CONSTITUTION:When the heat transfer between media 1 and 2 is requested, the posture of a thermosyphon is assumed so as that its high temperature medium side locates low while its low temperature medium side locates high or, if the medium 1 is low temperature side, the thermosyphon 4 assumes its posture as indicated in the attached figure or ascends to the right. After that, when the temperature of the medium 1 becomes higher than that of the medium 2 due to the change of external running conditions, the thermosyphon 4 can be swinged in response to the positive or negative sign of the temperature difference between the media 1 and 2 by holding a shaft 6 attached on the outside of the thermosyphon 4 by bearings mounted on the partition wall 3. In addition, a flexible supplementary partition wall 31 contriving to facilitate the swinging motion of the thermosyphon 4 and at the same time to prevent the mixing between the media 1 and 2 is attached at the piercing part of the partition wall 3. Furthermore, the posture of the thermosyphon 4 can also be automatically changed in response to the temperature difference between the media 1 and 2 by mounting a rod mechanism, which extends and contracts by means of the temperature difference between the media 1 and 2, for swinging the thermosyphon 4. |
