thin bonded films have many applications in antireflection and reflection coating, insulating and conducting films and semiconductor industries. thermal conductivity is one of the most important parameter for power packaging since the thermal resistance of the interconnections is directly related to the heat removal capability and thermal management of the power package. the defects in material...

the present paper was aimed to study the effects of variable thermal conductivity and heat generation on the flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid in the presence of a uniform transverse magnetic field, thermal radiation, porous medium, mass transfer, and variable free stream near a stagnation point on a non-conducting stretching sheet. equations of continuity, momentum...

In this paper we study the effects of variable viscosity and thermal conductivity on the heat transfer in the pressure-driven fully developed flow of a slurry (suspension) between two horizontal flat plates. The fluid is assumed to be described by a constitutive relation for a generalized second grade fluid where the shear viscosity is a function of the shear rate, temperature and concentration...

The effects of variable viscosity and thermal conductivity on the MHD flow of micropolar fluid on a continuous moving surface in the presence of a transverse magnetic field are studied considering the viscosity and thermal conductivity as the inverse linear functions of temperature where the microinertia density is assumed to be variable and not constant, as many other earlier published papers....

Common heat transfer fluids such as water, ethylene glycol, and engine oil have limited heat transfer capabilities due to their low heat transfer properties. Nanofluids are suspensions of nanoparticles in base fluids, a new challenge for thermal sciences provided by nanotechnology. In this study, we are to optimize and report the effects of various parameters such as the ratio of the thermal co...

Liquid paraffin as a coolant fluid can be  applied in electronic devices as a result to its suitable capabilities such as electrical insulating, high heat capacity, chemical and thermal stability, and high boiling point. However, the poor thermal conductivity of paraffin has been confined its thermal cooling application. Addition of high conductor nanoparticles to paraffin can fix this drawback...
