Entropy optimization in flow of Williamson nanofluid in the presence of chemical reaction and Joule heating

TL;DR: In this article, Williamson nanofluid over a stretching sheet is addressed, where momentum, heat, mass and entropy generation are modeled by second thermodynamics law and series solutions convergence by residual errors is ensured.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fully developed slip flow in a concentric annuli via single and dual phase nanofluids models

TL;DR: Both models successfully explain the enhancement of heat transfer character of nanofluids by analysing the obtained exact Nusselt numbers involving several parameters of physical interest.

Thermal Conductivity Variation for Methanol Based Nanofluids

TL;DR: In this paper, three types of nanoparticles, namely Al2O3, SiO2 and TiO2, were suspended in methanol solution at five volume fractions (0.005, 0.1%, 0.5, 10, 15 and 20°C) using a KD2 pro thermal conductivity meter.
