In this paper, the natural convection heat transfer of Al2O3-EG-water nanofluid in a rectangular cavity which is heated from the bottom and is cooled from the top has been investigated numerically. The governing equations for a Newtonian fluid have been solved numerically with a finite volume approach using the SIMPLER algorithm. The main focus of the current study is on the effects of variable...

in this study, the natural convection heat transfer of variable properties al2o3-eg-water nanofluid in a differentially heated rectangular cavity has been investigated numerically. the governing equations, for a newtonian fluid, have been solved numerically with a finite volume approach. the influences of the pertinent parameters such as ra in the range of 103-107 and volume fraction of nanopar...

The falling and settling of solid particles in gases and liquids is a natural phenomenon happens in many industrial processes. This phenomenon has altered pure forced convection to a combination of heat conduction and heat convection in a flow over a plate. In this paper, the coupling of conduction (inside the plate) and forced convection of a non-homogeneous nanofluid flow (over a flat plate) ...

nanofluid is a new class of heat transfer fluids engineered by dispersing metallic or non-metallic nanoparticles with a typical size of less than 100 nm in the conventional heat transfer fluids.this article aims to investigate the overall and convection heat transfer coefficient and nusselt number of al2o3-water nanofluid flowing in a horizontal double pipe heat exchanger under turbulent flow (...

in the present attempt, flow behavior and thermal convection of one type of nanofluids in a disc geometry was investigated using computational fluid dynamics (cfd). influence of gravity induced sedimentation also has been studied. the commercial software, fluent 6.2, has been employed to solve the governing equations. a user defined function was added to apply a uniform external magnetic field....

In this study, the behavior of nanoparticles using a numerical model is discussed. For this study a model for the expansion in free convection heat transfer and mix in a rectangular container with dimensions of 1 × 4 cm using Nano-aerosols in the air is going when copper nanoparticles, use and by changing the temperature difference between hot and cold wall, we will examine its impact on the ra...

Joule-Thomson cooling systems are used in refrigeration and liquefaction processes. There are extensive studies on Joule-Thomson cryogenic systems, but most of them coverage steady state conditions or lack from experimental data. In the present work, transient thermal behavior of Joule-Thomson cooling system including counter current helically coiled tube in tube heat exchanger, expansion valve...
