In the present research, a brief study on the impact of DBD (Dielectric Barrier Discharge) plasma actuator on the entropy generation rate in a channel flow is presented. The work has been continued in the certain inlet Reynolds number of about 670. Moreover, the problem is assumed to be a two dimensional DBD plasma based channel flow with the assumption of the incompressible flow. Since, the di...

We consider a heat transfer augmentation problem to minimize the entropy generation by assuming boundary-layer flow of nanofluid over moving wavy surface.

Two types water based nanofluids containing Cu Fe3O4 nanoparticles are considered. Moreover, s...

This article examines entropy generation in the peristaltic transport of nanofluid in a channel with flexible walls. Single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) and multiple walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) with water as base fluid are utilized in this study. Mixed convection is also considered in the present analysis. Viscous dissipation effect is present. Moreover, slip conditions are encountered f...

Natural convection heat transfer has many applications in different fields of industry; such as cooling industries, electronic transformer devices and ventilation equipment; due to simple process, economic advantage, low noise and renewed retrieval. Recently, heat transfer of nanofluids have been considered because of higher thermal conductivity coefficient compared with those of ordinary fluid...

This works presents a second law analysis on heat exchanger tube configurated as circular smoot (CST), elliptical smooth (EST) and twisted (ETT) with different aspect ratios pitch lengths. The ETTs were ratio (AR) of 1.5 2.0 twist length (PL) 50, 100 200 mm. hydraulic diameter was kept constant for all cases, since the results are influenced by change in diameter. CFD analyzes run to perform co...
