the present work is an experimental study of steady state convective heat transfer of de-ionized water with a (0.04% by volume) volume fraction of al2o3 nanoparticles dispersed to form a nanofluid that flows through an aluminium tube.laminar fully developed flow heat transfer coefficient of al2o3 nanoparticles are dispersed in water in circular tube is discussed in this paper. in order to valid...

Abstract— The flow past an infinite vertical isothermal plate started impulsively in its own plane in a viscous incompressible two-phase nanofluid has been considered by taking into account the viscous dissipative heat. Two nano particles Copper (Cu) and Alumina (Al2O3) are submerged in a base fluid, Water (H20). The coupled non-linear partial differential equations which govern the flow are so...

in recent decade, the new advanced nanofluids, composed from various particles, have attracted the attention of researchers. this class of nanofluids, which can be prepared by suspending several types (two or more than two) of nanoparticles in base fluid, is termed as hybrid nanofluids. in this work, an experimental investigation on the effects of temperature and concentration of nanoparticles ...

This study investigated a simple model of transformers that have liquid magnetic cores with different concentrations of ferro-nanofluids. The simple model was built on a capillary by enamel-insulated wires and with ferro-nanofluid loaded in the capillary. The ferro-nanofluid was fabricated by a chemical co-precipitation method. The performances of the transformers with either air core or ferro-...

Abstract   This study is applied Lattice Boltzmann Method to investigate the natural convection flow utilizing nanofluids in a concentric annulus. A numerical strategy presents for dealing with curved boundaries of second order accuracy for both velocity and temperature fields. The fluid between the cylinders is a water-based nanofluid containing different types of nanoparticles: copper (Cu), a...

the objective of the present study is the synthesis of mwcnt-tio2 hybrid nanostructures by solvothermal synthesis method with ticl4 as precursor. the heat transfer enhancement due to the use of mwcnt-tio2 nanofluid was investigated. as-prepared hybrid materials were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd) and scanning electron microscopy (sem). the results showed that mwcnts were uniformly dec...

A numerical investigation has been carried out applying single phase approach on turbulent forced convection flow of water based Al2O3 and TiO2 nanofluids flowing through a horizontal circular pipe under uniform heat flux boundary condition applied to the wall. The effect of volume concentrations, Brownian motion and size diameter of nanoparticles on flow and heat transfer have been examined fo...
