Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental investigation of turbulent convective heat transfer of dilute γ-Al2O3/water nanofluid inside a circular tube
S.M. Fotukian,M. Nasr Esfahany +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the volume fraction of nanoparticles in the base fluid was less than 0.2% and the authors showed that the addition of small amounts of nanoparticle to the base fluids augmented heat transfer remarkably.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal performance of closed two-phase thermosyphon using nanofluids
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the overall thermal resistance of closed two-phase thermosyphon using pure water and various water based nanofluids (of Al2O3, CuO and laponite clay) as working fluids.
Journal ArticleDOI
The onset of convection in a horizontal nanofluid layer of finite depth
TL;DR: In this paper, a linear stability analysis for the onset of natural convection in a horizontal nanofluid layer is presented, which incorporates the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spray cooling and flash evaporation cooling: The current development and application
TL;DR: In this article, an overview of spray cooling in three stages (single phase regime, two phase regime and critical heat flux regime) is presented, and the influence factors, spray characteristics, heating surface characteristics, fluid characteristics and external environment characteristics, were analyzed in detail.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal properties of carbon black aqueous nanofluids for solar absorption.
TL;DR: Carbon black nanofluids had good absorption ability of solar energy and can effectively enhance the solar absorption efficiency.
