In this paper, the effects of adding nanoparticles including Tio2 to a fluid media for purpose of free convection heat transfer improvement were analyzed. The free convection was assumed to be in laminar flow regime and the solutions and calculations were all done by the integral method. Water, as a Newtonian fluid, was considered the base fluid (water) and all the thermo physical properties of...

force convection heat transfer of turbulent nano fluid flow in 90 and 60 degree elbow is simulated by using fluent. single phase model has been implemented to study such a flow field and standard

Avoiding collision of nano-particles during manipulation operations and selecting the best route and lowest Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) movement are major concerns in the area of nano-space. To apply the lowest force on the cantilever from fluid environment forces, we try to minimize AFM movements. Our proposed method calculates the optimum routing for AFM probe movement for nano-particles tr...

In this paper, preparation, bioactivity, and osteoblast cell behavior of cortical bone derived nano-biphasic calcium phosphate (nano-BCP) are presented. The calcined bovine bone samples with the addition of di-ammonium hydrogen phosphate were heated at 700°C for 100 min, and thus nano-BCP with the composition of 63/37 hydroxyapatite (HA)/β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) was produced. Scanning ele...

This paper describes thermal modeling of Vapor Compression Refrigeration System using R134a in primary circuit and AL2O3-Water based nanofluids in secondary circuit. The model uses information of the secondary fluids input conditions geometric characteristics of the system, size of nanoparticles and the compressor speed to predict the secondary fluids output temperatures, the operating pressure...

Construction of nano-devices that can generate controllable unidirectional rotation is an important part of nanotechnology. Here, we design a nano-turbine composed of carbon nanotube and graphene nanoblades, which can be driven by fluid flow. Rotation motion of nano-turbine is quantitatively studied by molecular dynamics simulations on this model system. A robust linear relationship is achieved...

Using the compound Styrene maleic anhydride (SMA) as a model of a drug, a novel approach for sustained endogenously formed liposome encapsulated drug delivery to the prostate gland has been evolved. Intra vas deferens depot of a combination of high molecular weight SMA (SMAh, the drug) and low molecular weight SMA (SMAl) is formed by one time injection. The SMAh breaks down sperm membrane to pr...

Full-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations are presented for nano electrospray ionization (ESI) with various emitter designs. Our CFD electrohydrodynamic simulations are based on the Taylor-Melcher leaky-dielectric model, and the volume of fluid technique for tracking the fast-changing liquid-gas interface. The numerical method is first validated for a conventional 20 μm in...

Microand nano-scale fluid systems can behave very differently from their macro-scale counterparts. Remarkably, there is no sufficiently accurate, computationally efficient, and — most importantly — generally agreed fluid dynamic model that encapsulates all of this important behaviour. The only thing that researchers can agree on is that the conventional Navier-Stokes fluid equations are unable ...
