Heat Transfer to Separation Flow in Heat Exchangers

Application of ZnO/TiO2 Nanocomposite for the Improvement of Heat Transfer Coefficient in Tube Heat Exchangers

The potential of nanofluids for the improvement of heat transfer coefficient in various heat exchangeequipment has been considered and studied as a major application during recent decades. In this research,heat transfer coefficient of ZnO, TiO2 and ZnO/TiO2 nanofluids in a shell and tube heat exchanger has beenstudied experimentally. ZnO nanoparticle was synthesized through pre...

Nanofluids for Heat Transfer Enhancement – A Review

A nanofluid is a dilute liquid suspension of particles with at least one critical dimension smaller than ~100 nm. Research works so far suggest that nanofluids offer excellent heat transfer enhancement over conventional base fluids. The enhancement depends on several factors such as particle shape, particle size distribution, volume fraction of nanoparticles, temperature, pH, and thermal conduc...

Enhancement of heat transfer

Recent technological developments have lead to significant increase in the generated heat by electronic and optical components. The removal of high heat fluxes can be successfully treated by several methods, e.g. impinging jets. Further improvement is offered by incorporating arrays of jets or causing jets to pulsate. The research reported herein introduces a new method which is based on actuat...
