Thermal conductivity measurement of spinel-type ferrite MnFe2O4 nanofluids in the presence of a uniform magnetic field

TL;DR: In this article, the thermal conductivity of MnFe2O4/water nanofluids in attendance of a magnetic field was evaluated and an empirical correlation was derived to estimate thermal conductivities in terms of magnetic field intensity, volume concentration and temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI

An experimental and theoretical investigation on the effects of adding hybrid nanoparticles on heat transfer efficiency and pumping power of an oil-based nanofluid as a coolant fluid.

TL;DR: In this article, a KD2 Pro thermal analyzer was used to measure the thermal conductivity of the samples and the results showed an increasing trend for thermal conductivities of the nanofluid by increasing the mass concentration and temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI

MHD natural-convection flow in an inclined square enclosure filled with a micropolar-nanofluid

TL;DR: In this article, a meshless point collocation method utilizing a velocity-correction scheme has been developed to solve the governing equations in their velocity-vorticity formulation for various Rayleigh (Ra) and Hartman (Ha) numbers, different nanoparticles volume fractions (φ) and considering different inclination angles and magnetic field directions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficiency assessment of using graphene nanoplatelets-silver/water nanofluids in microchannel heat sinks with different cross-sections for electronics cooling

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of temperature, microchannel cross-section shape, volume concentration of nanoparticles and Reynolds number on thermal and hydraulics behavior of the nanofluid were investigated in terms of velocity, Nusselt number, pressure drop, friction loss and pumping power.
