Numerical investigation on the generality of nanoparticle velocity equation had been done on the previous published work. The three dimensional governing equations (continuity, momentum and energy) were solved using finite volume method (FVM). Parametric study of thermal performance between pure water-cooled and nanofluid-cooled are evaluated for volume fraction in the range of 1% to 4%, and na...

The functional implications of substances, such as retardation and relaxation, can be studied for magnetized diffusion coefficient based on the relative increase throughout magnetization is a well-known realization. In this context, we have explored Oldroyd-B hybrid nanofluid flowing through pored oscillating plate along with an inclined applied magnetics effect. slipping effect sinusoidal heat...

This study deals with the entropy investigation of peristalsis a water–copper nanofluid through an asymmetric inclined channel. The channel is anticipated to be filled uniform permeable medium, constant magnetic field impinging on wall physical effects, such as Hall current, mixed convection, Ohmic heating, and heat generation/annihilation, are also considered. Mathematical modeling from given ...

in this paper, the effect of the brownian term in natural convection of cuo-water nanofluid inside a partially filled porous cavity, with internal heat generation has been studied. it is assumed that the viscosity and thermal conductivity of nanofluid consists of a static part and a brownian part of which is a function of temperature and the volume fraction of nanofluid. because of internal hea...

Molecular dynamics simulations are used to simulate the thermal properties of a model fluid containing nanoparticles (nanofluid). By modeling transient absorption experiments, we show that they provide a reliable determination of interfacial resistance between the particle and the fluid. The flexibility of molecular simulation allows us to consider separately the effect of confinement, particle...

This paper presents results of investigations on the application of CuO-water nanofluids for intensification of convective heat transfer. Performance of nanofluids with 2.2 and 4.0 vol.% CuO NPs (nanoparticles) content were examined with regard to heat transfer coefficient and pressure losses in case of turbulent flow in a tube. Negligible impact of examined nanofluid on heat transfer improveme...

A lattice Boltzmann model is developed by coupling the density (D2Q9) and the temperature distribution functions with 9-speed to simulate the convection heat transfer utilizing Al2O3-water nanofluids in a square cavity. This model is validated by comparing numerical simulation and experimental results over a wide range of Rayleigh numbers. Numerical results show a satisfactory agreement between...
