Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal conductivity enhancement of COOH-functionalized MWCNTs/ethylene glycol–water nanofluid for application in heating and cooling systems
Mehdi Soltanimehr,Masoud Afrand +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an experimental investigation on the effects of temperature and nanotubes concentration on the thermal conductivity of MWCNTs/EG-water (40:60 vol.%) nanofluids is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radiation effects on Marangoni convection flow and heat transfer in pseudo-plastic non-Newtonian nanofluids with variable thermal conductivity
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of power-law viscosity on temperature field are taken into account by assuming that the temperature field is similar to the velocity field and that the thermal conductivity of the non-Newtonian fluids is powerlaw-dependent on the velocity gradient.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heat transfer performance and transport properties of ZnO-ethylene glycol and ZnO-ethylene glycol-water nanofluid coolants
TL;DR: In this paper, ZnO nanoparticles and ethylene glycol molecules were used to improve the transport properties of nanofluids for cooling applications, which showed that superior thermal conductivity could be harnessed for cooling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conjugate heat transfer in a porous cavity filled with nanofluids and heated by a triangular thick wall
Ali J. Chamkha,Muneer A. Ismael +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the conjugate natural convection-conduction heat transfer in a square domain composed of nanofluids filled porous cavity heated by a triangular solid wall under steady-state conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Single phase nanofluids in fluid mechanics and their hydrodynamic linear stability analysis
TL;DR: The presented approach serves to understand the stabilizing/destabilizing effects of nanofluids as compared to the standard base fluids in terms of stability of viscous/inviscid and temporal/spatial senses.
