Numerical study of flow and heat transfer characteristics of CuO/H2O nanofluid within a mini tube
Nanofluids are new heat transfer fluids, which improve thermal performance while reducing the size of systems. In this study, the numerical domain as a three-dimensional copper mini tube was simulated to study the characteristics of flow and heat transfer of CuO/H2O nanofluid, flowed horizontally within it. The selected model for this study was a two-phase mixture model. The results ...
متن کاملNumerical study of fluid flow and heat transfer in a gas-tank water heater
Influence of a vent hood at the exit of exhaust flue gas and flue baffles in the firetube on the temperature and flow fields of a gas tank water heater, as well as thestructure and amount of heat transferred to the water tank has been studiednumerically using two-dimensional steady state finite element simulation.Observations show that without a vent hood, there is a downward gas flow in theflu...
متن کاملPrediction of Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer Characteristics Behind a Single Backward-Facing Step
Numerical solutions based on standard finite volume method are presented for the study of heat transfer and fluid dynamic characteristics in turbulent flows behind a single sided backward-facing step. The calculation of the differential equations is performed using SIMPLE algorithm. For the turbulent quantities standard K-model is used. Predicted mean velocity profiles and reattachment lengths ...
متن کاملFluid Flow and Heat Transfer of Nanofluids over a Flat Plate with Conjugate Heat Transfer
The falling and settling of solid particles in gases and liquids is a natural phenomenon happens in many industrial processes. This phenomenon has altered pure forced convection to a combination of heat conduction and heat convection in a flow over a plate. In this paper, the coupling of conduction (inside the plate) and forced convection of a non-homogeneous nanofluid flow (over a flat plate) ...
متن کاملan investigation of the impact of self monitoring on langauge teachers motivational practice and its effect on learners motivation
the central purpose of this study was to conduct a case study about the role of self monitoring in teacher’s use of motivational strategies. furthermore it focused on how these strategies affected students’ motivational behavior. although many studies have been done to investigate teachers’ motivational strategies use (cheng & d?rnyei, 2007; d?rnyei & csizer, 1998; green, 2001, guilloteaux & d?...
