Journal ArticleDOI
Constructal multi-scale pin fins
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used constructal theory to determine the configuration of two rows of pin-fins so that the total heat transfer rate is maximized, where the heat transfer across the fins is by laminar forced convection bathed by a free-stream that is uniform and isothermal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental investigation and model development for effective viscosity of MgO–ethylene glycol nanofluids by using dimensional analysis, FCM-ANFIS and GA-PNN techniques
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the use of IRT seed for solar energy research in South Africa, including: National Research Foundation of South Africa (NRF), Stellenbosch University, University/University of Pretoria Solar Hub, CSIR, EEDSM Hub, NAC, NER, RDP and IRT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental investigation and model development for thermal conductivity of α-Al2O3-glycerol nanofluids
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors gratefully acknowledge the funding obtained from Energy IRT Seed-funding (2014-EIRTSharifpur), which was used for research at the University of Pretoria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy and exergy analyses of energy consumptions in the industrial sector in South Africa
M.T. Oladiran,Josua P. Meyer +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the energy-utilization over a 10-year period (1994-2003) has been analyzed for the South African industrial sector, which consumes more primary energy than any other sector of the economy.
Journal ArticleDOI
CFD modelling of heat transfer and pressure drops for nanofluids through vertical tubes in laminar flow by Lagrangian and Eulerian approaches
TL;DR: In this article, heat transfer and hydrodynamic features of nanoparticles in a laminar nanofluid flow in a vertical tube were investigated numerically through the Lagrangian and Eulerian approaches.
