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 natural convection heat transfer of Al2 O3/Water nanofluid in a Γ-shaped microchannel
Finite-volume procedure is presented for solving the natural convection of the laminar nanofluid flow in a Γ shaped microchannel in this article. Modified Navier-Stokes equations for nanofluids are the basic equations for this problem. Slip flow region, including the effects of velocity slip and temperature jump at the wall, are the main characteristics of flow in the slip flow region. Steady ...
متن کاملNumerical Study of Natural Convection Heat Transfer in a Horizontal Wavy Absorber Solar Collector Based on the Second Law Analysis
Literature about entropy generation analysis of a wavy enclosure is scare. In this paper. a FORTRAN cod using an explicit finite-volume method was provided for estimating the entropy production due to the natural convection heat transfer in a cosine wavy absorber solar collector. The volumetric entropy generation terms both the heat transfer term and the friction term were straightly calculated...
متن کاملNumerical Study on Convective Heat Transfer Enhancement in Horizontal Rectangle Enclosures Filled with Ag-Ga Nanofluid
The natural convection heat transfer of horizontal rectangle enclosures with different aspect ratios (A = 2:1 and A = 4:1) filled with Ag-Ga nanofluid (different nanoparticle volume fractions φ = 0.01, φ = 0.03, φ = 0.05 and radiuses r = 20 nm, r = 40 nm, r = 80 nm) at different Rayleigh numbers (Ra = 1 × 103 and Ra = 1 × 105) is investigated by a two-phase lattice Boltzmann model. It is found ...
متن کاملNumerical Study on Hydrodynamics and Heat Transfer Characteristics Around a Cylinder with Inclined Splitter Plates
In the current paper, the effect of length and angle of a splitter plate on hydro-thermal field in a range of Reynolds number from 40 to 1000 are numerically studied by solving the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. For discretization of governing equations, PISO algorithm was imposed to segregate the pressure-velocity coupled equations, and second-order upwind discretization scheme was a...
