Numerical study on convective heat transfer for water-based alumina nanofluids

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 […]

Thermal performance of natural circulation loop filled with Al2O3/Water nanofluid

Natural Circulation Loop (NCL) which is also called as a thermosyphon system is the heat transfer loop which uses no pump or external device to drive the loop fluid. In the present paper, a comparative study on thermal characteristics of two loop fluids viz. water and Al2O3/water nanofluid is made. Experiments are conducted on in-house […]
