TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental study of steady state convective heat transfer of de-ionized water with a low volume fraction (0.003% by volume) of copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles dispersed to form a nanofluid that flows through a copper tube was conducted.

TL;DR: In this paper, experiments were performed using silver-water nanofluids under laminar, transition and turbulent flow regimes in a horizontal 4.3-mm inner-diameter tube-in-tube counter-current heat transfer test section.

TL;DR: In this article, the melting behavior of a fatty acid-based phase change material (PCM) with the addition of functionalized graphene nanoplatelets in a spherical capsule was experimentally studied.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the solidification behavior of functionalized graphene-based phase change nanocomposites inside a sphere and reported a maximum thermal conductivity enhancement of ~102 and 46% with 0.5 vol% in the solid and liquid states, respectively.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of the cooling performance of a copper metal foam heat sink under buoyancy-induced convection is investigated by using the Hazen-Dupuit Darcy model to curve-fit the longitudinal global pressure drop versus the average fluid speed data from an isothermal steady flow experiment across the test section of the porous medium.
