Impact of different surfactants and ultrasonication time on the stability and thermophysical properties of hybrid nanofluids

TL;DR: In this article, stable hybrid nanofluids were produced by dispersing graphene nanoplatelets (GnPs) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) in a mixture of distilled water and ethylene glycol (DW/EG) using a two-step method.

Conjugate heat transfer and entropy generation in a cavity filled with a nanofluid-saturated porous media and heated by a triangular solid

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the entropy generation due to conjugate natural convection-conduction heat transfer in a square domain under steady-state condition, and the results showed that both the average Nusselt number and entropy generation are increasing functions of K ro while they are maxima at some critical values of D.

MHD 3D flow and heat transfer analysis of nanofluid by shrinking surface inspired by thermal radiation and viscous dissipation

TL;DR: In this article, three dimensional magnetohydrodynamic flow and heat transfer analysis associated with thermal radiation as well as viscous dissipation of nanofluid over a shrinking surface has been investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Numerical Study on the Forced Convection of Laminar Nanofluid in a Microchannel with Both Slip and No-Slip Conditions

TL;DR: In this article, the thermal performance of a microchannel, cooled with either pure water or a Cu-water nanofluid, while considering the effects of both slip and no-slip boundary conditions on the flow field and heat transfer was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Numerical Analysis of the Unsteady Natural Convection MHD Couette Nanofluid Flow in the Presence of Thermal Radiation Using Single and Two-Phase Nanofluid Models for Cu–Water Nanofluids

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Gear-Chebyshev-Gauss-Lobatto collocation technique to solve the nonlinear dynamical system of partial differential equations for the MHD Couette nanofluid flow with thermal radiation.
