A nanofluid is mixture of nano sized particles and a base fluid. This paper investigates by using laboratory based double pipe heat exchanger model, the performance of nanofluid containing about 48.46nm particle size nanoparticles (ZnO) without or with addition of nonionic surfactant Rokanol K7 (500ppm) into the base fluid double distilled water to prepared three […]
This article reports an experimental study of heat transfer characteristics of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). These nanofluids, consisting of water with different weight concentrations of nanofluid (0.0.1–0.145% wt.), have flown in counter flow plate heat exchanger under turbulent conditions (the range of Reynolds numbers 2500-6500) for cooling applications. The nanofluid was prepared by dispersing MWCNT […]
In the present work the flow boiling charecteristics of CuO/water nanofluid were studied experimentally and the statistical as well as regression analysis were conducted to asses the flow boiling heat transfer coefficient and the influencing parameters. For this, CuO/water nanofluid was prepared by two step procedure for the particle concentration of 0.001%, 0.005%, and 0.01 […]
