A Theoretical Approach of the Heat Transfer in Nanofluids
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using the fractal space-time theory (scale relativity theory), the dynamics of the fluid/nano-particle interface was analyzed. In the general case, the heat transfer through the interface reproduces a d.c. or an a.c. Josephson effects of thermal type, while in the linear approximation, the standard form of heat transfer is given. Consequently, a negative differential thermal conductance appears and an increase in of heat transfer in nanofluids results. [doi:10.2320/matertrans.MRP2007118]

Single Walled Carbon Nanotube Effects on Mixed Convection heat Transfer in an Enclosure: a LBM Approach
The effects of Single Walled Carbon Nanotube (SWCNT) on mixed convection in a cavity are investigated numerically. The problem is studied for different Richardson numbers (0.1-10), volume fractions of nanotubes (0-1%), and aspect ratio of the cavity (0.5-2.5) when the Grashof number is equal to 103. The volume fraction of added nanotubes to Water as base fluid are lowers than 1% to make dilute ...
متن کاملA New Approach for Solving Heat and Mass Transfer Equations of Viscoelastic Nanofluids using Artificial Optimization Method
The behavior of many types of fluids can be simulated using differential equations. There are many approaches to solve differential equations, including analytical and numerical methods. However, solving an ill-posed high-order differential equation is still a major challenge. Generally, the governing differential equations of a viscoelastic nanofluid are ill-posed; hence, their solution is a c...

Indeed, regression analysis has gained application in contexts such as the turbulent Reynolds number, especially with the aim of establishing the impact of the ratio of the...
متن کاملNanofluids for Heat Transfer Enhancement – A Review
A nanofluid is a dilute liquid suspension of particles with at least one critical dimension smaller than ~100 nm. Research works so far suggest that nanofluids offer excellent heat transfer enhancement over conventional base fluids. The enhancement depends on several factors such as particle shape, particle size distribution, volume fraction of nanoparticles, temperature, pH, and thermal conduc...
