TS (THERMOSIPHON SYSTEM)
TRISUN's thermosiphon system enables efficient, pump-free heat transfer using natural convection. Ideal for passive cooling in residential and industrial applications, it supports both open and closed-loop designs.
Thermosiphon System: A Passive Solution for Efficient Heat Transfer
The TRISUN thermosiphon system is an efficient method of passive heat transfer that relies on natural convection to circulate fluid without the need for a pump. In this system, heated water rises while cold water sinks, creating a continuous flow that enhances heat distribution. Heat pipes play a crucial role in transferring thermal energy, often working in conjunction with a heat sink to improve the cooling system's efficiency. The loop design allows water to circulate through an open-loop or closed-loop configuration, depending on the application. This makes it ideal for passive heat exchange in residential and industrial settings.
How TRISUN Thermosiphon System Improves Thermal Efficiency
One of the main benefits of the TRISUN system is its ability to optimize thermal efficiency in a wide range of applications. It is especially valuable in solar thermal systems and wood fire water heaters, where natural convection enables the continuous flow of heat without the need for mechanical pumps or complex mechanisms. The system's reliance on capillary action ensures that the heat transfer process is seamless, reducing the risk of mechanical failure and extending the lifespan of your heating or cooling system.
Benefits of Natural Convection
Natural convection allows the system to move heat without any external energy input, unlike traditional systems that require pumps or motors to circulate fluids. This results in lower operating costs and greater energy savings. By using ambient temperature gradients, the TRISUN system efficiently circulates heat, making it ideal for both residential and industrial heating needs.
Key Applications of TRISUN Thermosiphon System
The TRISUN system is versatile, with applications spanning across various industries and residential setups. Some key uses include:
1. Solar Thermal Systems
Sustainable Heating: By integrating these principles into solar thermal systems, users can harness solar energy more effectively, ensuring consistent hot water supply even without electrical power.
Low Maintenance: Since no pump is needed, the system is low-maintenance and operates efficiently, even in off-grid locations.
2. Wood Fire Water Heaters
Natural Circulation: This system provides efficient heat transfer from wood fire heaters to water tanks, ensuring a steady supply of hot water. This effect works with the natural heat from the fire, eliminating the need for electric pumps.
Eco-Friendly: The design reduces the carbon footprint by minimizing electricity usage while utilizing renewable heat sources.

Q1: What is the purpose of a thermosiphon system in mechanical seals?
ANS: This system is used to cool and lubricate double mechanical seals (typically in tandem or back-to-back configurations). It circulates barrier fluid between the seal chamber and an external reservoir, helping to dissipate heat, reduce friction, and prolong seal life in high-pressure or high-temperature applications.
Q2: Where is the TS-Thermosiphon System commonly used?
ANS: The TS System is ideal for use in pumps handling aggressive, hot, or abrasive media, especially in industries like:
• Chemical processing
• Oil and gas
• Power generation
• Pharmaceuticals
• Wastewater treatment
It supports API Plan 52, 53A, and 54 seal piping arrangements.
Q3: Does the TS-Thermosiphon System require an external power source?
ANS: No, This System operates on the natural convection principle (thermosiphon effect), requiring no external pump or power source for circulation. This makes it energy-efficient, low-maintenance, and reliable even in remote or unmanned installations.
Q4: What are the key components included in the TS-Thermosiphon System?
ANS: The system typically includes:
• Stainless steel pressure vessel with sight glass
• Cooling coil or fins (optional)
