With the growing world, the demand for closely packed electronic systems is increasing. Therefore, the highly effective device required for thermal management pulsating heat pipe is very capable because it has a simple structure, and the main advantage of PHP is it does not need a weak structure. Due to these advantages, pulsating heat pipes are used in PV cooling, heat exchanger, solar collector’s electronic device cooling, solar water heating system, thermal management of battery in an electric vehicle, etc. Since the proposal of Akachi in 1990, several research and theoretical studies on PHP have been conducted over the past few decades. This article seeks to review the pulsating heat pipe based on experimental studies and to review the different characteristics of the nanofluid as another fluid of the PHP with the high thermal efficiency required for cooling technologies in electronic systems. The advantages of Nanofluid are also discussed.
