Experimental study of mixed convection with water–Al2O3 nanofluid in inclined tube with uniform wall heat flux
TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental investigation was carried out to study mixed convection of Al 2 O 3 -water nanofluid inside an inclined copper tube submitted to a uniform wall heat flux at its outer surface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental and numerical investigation of nanofluid heat transfer in helically coiled tubes at constant wall temperature using dispersion model
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied laminar, steady state flow in helically coiled tubes at a constant wall temperature, numerically and experimentally, using a finite difference method with projection algorithm using FORTRAN programming language.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical Dispersion of Nanoparticles and Its Effect on the Specific Heat Capacity of Impure Binary Nitrate Salt Mixtures
TL;DR: Results showed an enhancement in specific heat capacity (Cp) for both types of nanoparticles for both CuO andTiO2 in eutectic mixture of sodium and potassium nitrate but the behavior toward a rise in concentration was different with CuO displaying its highest enhancement at the lowest concentration whilst TiO2 showed no concentration dependence for three of the four different concentrations tested.
