Laminar convective heat transfer of shear-thinning liquids in rectangular channels with longitudinal vortex generators

Experimental Investigation of Forced Convective Heat Transfer in Rectangular Micro-channels

This paper investigates the experimental program on the study of heat transfer characteristics in micro-channels. The two test sections used are of 47 and 50 micro-channels in rectangular cross-section of equivalent diameters 387 and 327 μm respectively. Each channel of length 192 mm is fabricated on a 304 stainless steel substrate (230 mm x 160 mm x 1.6 mm) by photo chemical etching process. C...

Investigation of Laminar Pulsating Nanofluid Flow and Heat Transfer in a Rectangular Channel

In this study, two-dimensional pulsating unsteady flow of nanofluid through a rectangular channel with isothermal walls is investigated numerically. The set of resultant algebraic equations is solved simultaneously using SIMPLE algorithm to obtain the velocity and pressure distribution within the channel. The effects of several parameters, such as volume fraction of different nanoparticles, Rey...
