The Cheng–Minkowycz problem for natural convective boundary layer flow in a porous medium saturated by a nanofluid: A revised model
TLDR
In this article, the authors revisited their previous model and extended it to the case when the nanofluid particle fraction on the boundary is passively rather than actively controlled, which makes the model physically more realistic than their previous models.About:

Convective radiative plane Poiseuille flow of nanofluid through porous medium with slip: An application of Stefan blowing
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of second order slip on plane Poiseuille nanofluid under the influence of Stefan blowing in a channel are discovered, and the starring role of heat transfer, magnetic field and porosity are all together taken into account.

Free convection of hybrid Al2O3-Cu water nanofluid in a differentially heated porous cavity
TL;DR: In this article, the free convective heat transfer of the Al 2 O 3 -Cu water hybrid nanofluid in a cavity filled with a porous medium is investigated. And the experimental data show dramatic enhancement in the thermal conductivity and dynamic viscosity of the synthesized hybrid nano-luids, and hence, these thermophysical properties could not be modeled using available models of nanometrics.

Conjugate natural convection in a square porous cavity filled by a nanofluid using Buongiorno’s mathematical model
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of seven types of influential factors such as the Rayleigh and Lewis numbers, the buoyancy-ratio parameter, the Brownian motion parameter, thermophoresis parameter, thermal conductivity ratio, and solid walls thickness on the fluid flow and heat transfer have been determined.

Convection in Porous Media
Donald A. Nield,Adrian Bejan +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an introduction to convection in porous media assumes the reader is familiar with basic fluid mechanics and heat transfer, going on to cover insulation of buildings, energy storage and recovery, geothermal reservoirs, nuclear waste disposal, chemical reactor engineering and the storage of heat-generating materials like grain and coal.

Convective Transport in Nanofluids
TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered seven slip mechanisms that can produce a relative velocity between the nanoparticles and the base fluid and concluded that only Brownian diffusion and thermophoresis are important slip mechanisms in nanofluids.

Free convection about a vertical flat plate embedded in a porous medium with application to heat transfer from a dike
Ping Cheng,W. J. Minkowycz +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an analysis is made for steady free convection about a vertical flat plate embedded in a saturated porous medium at high Rayleigh numbers, where boundary layer thickness, local and overall surface heat flux, and local and average heat transfer coefficients are derived for an isothermal dike intruded in an aquifer.
