Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore four possible explanations for the anomalous thermal conductivity of nanofluids: Brownian motion of the particles, molecular-level layering of the liquid at the liquid/particle interface, the nature of heat transport in the nanoparticles, and the effects of nanoparticle clustering.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the behavior of nanofluids inside a two-sided lid-driven differentially heated square cavity to gain insight into convective recirculation and flow processes induced by a nano-fluid.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the finite volume technique to solve the governing equations of heat transfer and fluid flow due to buoyancy forces in a partially heated enclosure using nanofluids.
