-Garnett model is used to predict the ratio of thermal conductivity. Results are posed

for different values of Rayleigh number and volume fraction, in terms of streamlines, isotherms and local Nusselt number. The effects of nanoparticle volume fraction...

apparatus was made to measure convective heat transfer

coefficient and Nusselt number. Constant heat flux boundary condition and laminar flow regime

were selected. Experimental results clearly indicated that the addition of small amount of...

In the current study, the Nusselt number performance of a Two-Phase Closed Thermosyphon (TPCT) has been investigated using functionalized carbon nanotube (CNT) with ethylene diamine (EDA) suspension. After synthesis of CNT-EDA/Water nanofluid...

In this investigation convective heat transfer of two series of oxide nanofluids including and were studied experimentally. The flow was laminar and constant wall temperature was used as thermal boundary condition. The ...

Nusselt number is decreased when the Lewis number is increased.

It is observed that as the Schmidt number is increased, the wall temperature gradient is

decreased and as a consequence the local Nusselt number is decreased. The effects...

In order to raise the heat transfer coefficient of industrial turbine oil, CuO/turbine oil naonofluid suspension is prepared at volume concentrations of less than 1 vol%. An experimental apparatus was designed and constructed ...

In this paper, the values of average Nusselt number and heat transfer coefficient ratio for natural convection of silica/water nanofluids in square and triangular cavities are estimated using theoretical correlations. The correlations that are used...

on different

condensation parameters including the liquid film thickness, velocity and temperature profiles,

Nusselt number and liquid mass flow rate is discussed. It is found that the increase in the velocity

slip and temperature jump...

at the front stagnation point where the local Nusselt is itself maximum, owing to the maximum temperature gradient at this point. The results show that due to the opposing effects of the velocity slip and temperature jump, the average Nusselt number variation...
