Heterogeneous nanofluids: natural convection heat transfer enhancement
Convective heat transfer using different nanofluid types is investigated. The domain is differentially heated and nanofluids are treated as heterogeneous mixtures with weak solutal diffusivity and possible Soret separation. Owing to the pronounced Soret effect of these materials in combination with a considerable solutal expansion, the resulting solutal buoyancy forces could be significant and ...
متن کاملLattice Boltzmann Simulation of Nanofluids Natural Convection Heat Transfer in Concentric Annulus (TECHNICAL NOTE)
Abstract This study is applied Lattice Boltzmann Method to investigate the natural convection flow utilizing nanofluids in a concentric annulus. A numerical strategy presents for dealing with curved boundaries of second order accuracy for both velocity and temperature fields. The fluid between the cylinders is a water-based nanofluid containing different types of nanoparticles: copper (Cu), a...
متن کاملEffect of nanoparticle shape on natural convection heat transfer in a square cavity with partitions using water-SiO2 nanofluid
In this paper a numerical investigation is performed to study the effects of different nanofluids on convective heat transfer enhancement in a partitioned square cavity subject to different shapes of nanoparticle using water-SiO2 nanofluid. This study has been carried out to analyze the effects of SiO2 nanoparticle, its volumetric fraction between 2 and 4%, and nanoparticle shape (i.e. blades, ...
متن کاملNatural Convection Heat Transfer within Octagonal Enclosure
The problem of steady, laminar and incompressible natural convection flow in an octagonalenclosure was studied. In this investigation, two horizontal walls were maintained at a constant hightemperature, two vertical walls were kept at a constant low temperature and all inclined walls wereconsidered adiabatic. The enclosure was assumed to be filled with a Bousinessq fluid. The studyincludes comp...
متن کاملEnhancement of Natural Convection Heat Transfer in Annular Enclosures
Natural convection heat transfer was investigated experimentally in a concentric-cylinders annulus. To enhance the rate of heat transfer, pin fins were installed on the surface of the inner cylinder. Two fin arrangements were employed, namely, staggered and in-line arrangements. The length of the fins varied from 2 to 8 cm and the Rayleigh number Ra changed in the range from 5 x 105 to 5 x 106...
