Abstract:

In this study, the behavior of nanoparticles using a numerical model is discussed. For this study a model for the expansion in free convection heat transfer and mix in a rectangular container with dimensions of 1 × 4 cm using Nano-aerosols in the air is going when copper nanoparticles, use and by changing the temperature difference between hot and cold wall, we will examine its impact on the rate of heat transfer. The simulation involves two-dimensional flow simulation and relaxed state of constant flux in free convection on the two lateral sides and on the top face of constant temperature (cold plate) at 300 K was considered And at low temperature (heat plate) in three modes 350, 400 and 450 K were compared. Temperature distribution, velocity, surface heat flux and Nusselt number during the course of our review.Finally, enhanced heat transfer in the presence of copper nanoparticles and changes in the temperature difference between warm and cold wall was observed

Single Walled Carbon Nanotube Effects on Mixed Convection heat Transfer in an Enclosure: a LBM Approach

The effects of Single Walled Carbon Nanotube (SWCNT) on mixed convection in a cavity are investigated numerically. The problem is studied for different Richardson numbers (0.1-10), volume fractions of nanotubes (0-1%), and aspect ratio of the cavity (0.5-2.5) when the Grashof number is equal to 103. The volume fraction of added nanotubes to Water as base fluid are lowers than 1% to make dilute ...
