The effect of attack angle of triangular ribs on heat transfer of nanofluids in a microchannel

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of attack angle of triangular ribs, by using finite volume method, has been numerically studied in a two-dimensional microchannel, where cooling fluid is water/Ag nanofluid with volume fractions of 0-4% of nanoparticles, and nanoparticle diameters are 25, 50 and 75.

Three-dimensional flow of nanofluid over a non-linearly stretching sheet: An application to solar energy

TL;DR: In this article, a set of similarity transformations are introduced to convert the boundary layer equations into self-similar forms, and the solutions have been obtained numerically through shooting method with fourth-fifth-order Runge-Kutta integration technique.

Absorption performance enhancement by nano-particles and chemical surfactants in binary nanofluids

TL;DR: In this paper, the bubble behavior during the NH 3 /H 2 O absorption process with chemical surfactant and nano-particles was analyzed and the effect of nanoparticles and surfactants on the absorption characteristics was analyzed.

Erratum to: Study on thermal conductivity of water-based nanofluids with hybrid suspensions of CNTs/Al2O3 nanoparticles

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of temperature and solid volume fraction on thermal conductivity of CNTs were investigated, and correlations were proposed for different temperatures by nonlinear regression based on experimental data.
