        abstract = {A heat pipe is a device that transfers heat from a source of high temperature to a sink of low temperature. It's a kind of heat exchanger that uses phase transition to transmit heat. The pressure inside the heat pipe, the number of wick layers, the filling ratio, the hdeat input, the orientation of the heat pipe, and the mass flow rate of water are some of the variables that affect how well a heat pipe performs. The current study's objective is to perform a parametric analysis of heat pipes with different filling ratios (20%, 30%, 40%, and 50%), heat input within the pipes (400W to 1500W) with one wick layer while maintaining constant atmospheric pressure, 45° heat pipe orientation, and 2.66 ml/sec water mass flow rate. The results of the calculations are displayed in terms of temperature profile of the heat pipe, effectiveness, overall heat transfer coefficient, evaporation heat transfer coefficient, condensation heat transfer coefficient, overall thermal resistance, evaporation heat transfer coefficient, and temperature vs. heat input of the heat pipe. The parametric experiments revealed that at a 40% filling ratio and 600 W, the maximum heat pipe efficiency was 88.53%.},
