An experimental study on the heat transfer of the inclined thermosyphon with low integral-fins in which boiling and condensation occurred is performed to investigate its heat transfer performance. Water and CFC-30 have been used as the working fluids. The operating temperature and the inclination angle of thermosyphon have been used as the experimental parameters. The heat flux input and the inclination angle $\theta$ towards the vertical position were varied in steps. The heat transfer rate in the thermosyphon was depended upon the inclination angle. In addition, it is to obtain the overall heat transfer coefficients and the characteristics as a operating temperature for the practical applications.
