This study presents pressure drop and heat transfer characteristics of water based nanofluids with TiO2 and Al2O3 nanoparticles of various mass fractions in horizontal smooth hypodermic microtubes with an outer diameter ...
The effect of nanoparticle type and nanoparticle mass fraction on heat transfer enhancement in pool boiling
(Elsevier, 2017-06)
Determining the heat transfer performance with nanofluids is of cardinal importance in the utilization of nanofluids in thermal systems. This study presents an experimental investigation on nucleate pool boiling heat ...
Experimental study on heat transfer of multi-walled carbon nanotubes/water nanofluids in horizontal microtubes
(ASME, 2016)
In this study, heat transfer characteristics of multi-walled carbon nanotube based nanofluids were investigated in horizontal microtubes with outer and inner diameters of ∼1067 and ∼889 μm, respectively. Carbon nanotubes ...
Increasing the stability of nanofluids with cavitating flows in micro orifices
(AIP, 2016)
One of the most critical challenges for nanofluids in practical applications is related to their stability and reusability since a gradual agglomeration of nanoparticles in nanofluids occurs with time and is accelerated ...
Deagglomeration of nanoparticle clusters in a “cavitation on chip” device
(American Institute of Physics Inc., 2020-11-01)
Due to the potential of significant energy release in cavitating flows, early cavitation inception and intensification of cavitating flows are of great importance. To use this potential, we investigated the deagglomeration ...
Entropy generation analysis of laminar flows of water-based nanofluids in horizontal minitubes under constant heat flux conditions
(MDPI AG, 2018-04)
During the last decade, second law analysis via entropy generation has become important in terms of entropy generation minimization (EGM), thermal engineering system design, irreversibility, and energy saving. In this ...
Subcooled flow boiling heat transfer of γ-Al2O3/water nanofluids in horizontal microtubes and the effect of surface characteristics and nanoparticle deposition
(Elsevier, 2017)
In this study, subcooled flow boiling heat transfer characteristics of nanofluids were investigated at micro scale. For this purpose, the effect of γ-Al2O3 (gamma-alumina) nanoparticles with an average solid diameter of ...
Experimental and numerical investigation of inlet temperature effect on convective heat transfer of γ-Al2O3/Water nanofluid flows in microtubes
(Taylor & Francis, 2019-06-15)
Nanofluids are the combination of a base fluid with nanoparticles with sizes of 1–100 nm. In order to increase the heat transfer performance, nanoparticles with higher thermal conductivity compared to that of base fluid ...
