Heat Transfer Applications of TiO2 Nanofluids

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...

Nanofluids Preparation and Stability for Heat Transfer Applications – A Review

Miniaturized and highly efficient thermal systems represent the current requirements of the automobile, industrial as well as residential cooling and heating systems. But the performance of the modern thermal systems is primarily limited by the lower conductivity of the fluids being used in these systems. As a result of research and technology advancements, the concept of Nanofluids was introdu...

Nanofluids for heat transfer: an engineering approach

An overview of systematic studies that address the complexity of nanofluid systems and advance the understanding of nanoscale contributions to viscosity, thermal conductivity, and cooling efficiency of nanofluids is presented. A nanoparticle suspension is considered as a three-phase system including the solid phase (nanoparticles), the liquid phase (fluid media), and the interfacial phase, whic...

Heat Transfer Coefficients Investigation for TiO2 Based Nanofluids

From a regression analysis perspective, this paper focused on literature about TiO2 nano particles. The particles on focus entailed those that had been suspended in ethylene glycol and water – at a ratio of 60:40. Indeed, regression analysis has gained application in contexts such as the turbulent Reynolds number, especially with the aim of establishing the impact of the ratio of the...
