Flow and convective heat transfer characteristics of water-based Al2O3 nanofluids in fully developed laminar flow regime
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the pressure drop and convective heat transfer coefficient of water-based Al2O3 nanofluids flowing through a uniformly heated circular tube in the fully developed laminar flow regime.

Assessment of the effectiveness of nanofluids for single-phase and two-phase heat transfer in micro-channels
Jaeseon Lee,Issam Mudawar +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored the micro-channel cooling benefits of water-based nanofluids containing small concentrations of Al 2 O 3, showing that the high thermal conductivity of nanoparticles is shown to enhance the single-phase heat transfer coefficient, especially for laminar flow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced thermal conductivity of nanofluids: a state-of-the-art review
TL;DR: In this article, effective thermal conductivity models of nanofluids are reviewed and comparisons between experimental findings and theoretical predictions are made, and the results show that there exist significant discrepancies among the experimental data available and between the experimental results and the theoretical model predictions.
