Devices called reverse thermosyphon enable passive heat transfer when the heat source is above the place of its receipt. This is often the case in solar installations for the preparation of hot water. The article concerns the determination of the possibility of using a two-phase inverted thermosyphon with two working factors in a passive downwards heat transport installation. The analysis was carried out on the basis of previous experimental studies. The height of the tested installation in one case was 1.5 m, in the second 18 m, at a heat load of 300, 600 and 900 W. Water and pentane was used as a working fluid inside the loop. Initial conclusions from the analysis confirm the possibility of using reverse thermosyphon with two working factors in the construction of a passive heat transport system.
