The nano fluid is a magic fluid which can enhance the heat transfer. The specific area of nano particles is very high. So, these particles can use in different fields. The zinc oxide nano fluid has different properties such as non toxic and useful for mass and heat transfer fields. Also, heat pipe is a power full device which can improve the heat transfer. So, a heat pipe and zinc oxide nano fluid as the operating fluid is used in this paper. Temperature distribution, nano fluid density and nano fluid shear stress is considered in this work. The results present better temperature distribution of zinc oxide nano fluid relative to the pure water.
