TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive review of the flow and heat transfer results of single-phase laminar mixed convection flow over vertical, horizontal and inclined backward-and forward-facing steps is presented.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of using various types of nanofluids and Reynolds numbers on heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics in a square shaped microchannel heat exchanger (MCHE) are numerically investigated.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of step height on turbulent mixed convection flow along a vertical flat plate was examined for step heights of 0, 11, and 22 mm at a free stream air velocity, u ∞, of 0.55 m⋅s−1, and a temperature difference, ΔT, of 30 ǫ°C between the heated walls and the free flow air (corresponding to a local Grashof number Gr x i = 6.45 × 10 10 ).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a finite difference formulation to determine the temperature distribution along a fin with a cylindrical cross-section and showed that the heat loss due to radiation is typically 15-20% of the total.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the finite volume method to solve the conservation equations along with the boundary conditions for laminar mixed convection using various types of nanofluids over a horizontal backwardfacing step in a duct, in which the upstream wall and the step are considered adiabatic surfaces, while the downstream wall from the step is heated to a uniform temperature that is higher than the inlet fluid temperature.
