An experimental study on the natural convection heat transfer in rectangular enclosure using functionalized alumina-thermal oil-based nanofluids
TLDR
In this paper, an experimental study on the convective heat transfer of nanofluids was conducted in a vertical rectangular enclosure with one heating and one cooling wall. And the results showed that the high nanoparticle concentrations of nanoparticles exhibit higher heat transfer coefficient as compared to the pure thermal oil.About:
