01 Feb 2013-Powder Technology (Elsevier)-Vol. 235, pp 873-879
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of the squeeze number, the nanofluid volume fraction and Eckert number and δ on Nusselt number were investigated, and the results showed that Nussellt number has a direct relationship with nanoparticle volume fraction, δ, the squeeze and EKN when two plates are separated but it has reverse relationship with the squeeze when two plate are squeezed.
