This has been motivated by the use of nanosized systems in various applications. The viscosity of nanofluids is of great significance as the application of nanofluids is always associated with their flow. However, despite the fairly large amount of available experimental information, there is a lack of systematic data on this issue and experimental results are often contradictory. The purpose of this review is to identify the typical parameters determining the viscosity of nanofluids. The dependence of the nanofluid viscosity on the particles concentration, their size and temperature is analyzed. It is explained why the viscosity of nanofluid does not described by the classical theories. It was shown that size of nanoparticles is the key characteristics of nanofluids. In addition the nanofluid is more structural liquid than the base one.展开更多

Div...This study delves into both experimental and analytical examinations of heat exchange in a straight channel, where Al_(2)O_(3)-water nanofluids are utilized, spanning the Reynolds number spectrum from 100 to 1800. Diverse volume fractions(1%, 2%, and 3%) of Al_(2)O_(3)-water nanofluids are meticulously prepared and analyzed. The essential physical properties of these nanofluids, critical for evaluating their thermal and flow characteristics, have been comprehensively assessed. From a quantitative perspective, numerical simulations are employed to predict the Nusselt number(Nu) and friction factor(f). The empirical findings reveal intriguing trends: the friction factor experiences an upward trend with diminishing velocity, attributed to heightened molecular cohesion. Conversely, the friction factor demonstrates a decline with diminishing volume fractions, a consequence of reduced particle size. Both the nanofluid's viscosity and heat transfer coefficient exhibit a rise in tandem with augmented volume flow rate and concentration gradient. Notably, the simulation results harmonize remarkably well with experimental data. Rigorous validation against prior studies underscores the robust consistency of these outcomes. In the pursuit of augmenting heat transfer, a volume fraction of 3% emerges as particularly influential, yielding an impressive 53.8% enhancement. Minor increments in the friction factor, while present, prove negligible and can be safely overlooked.展开更多

文摘This study delves into both experimental and analytical examinations of heat exchange in a straight channel, where Al_(2)O_(3)-water nanofluids are utilized, spanning the Reynolds number spectrum from 100 to 1800. Diverse volume fractions(1%, 2%, and 3%) of Al_(2)O_(3)-water nanofluids are meticulously prepared and analyzed. The essential physical properties of these nanofluids, critical for evaluating their thermal and flow characteristics, have been comprehensively assessed. From a quantitative perspective, numerical simulations are employed to predict the Nusselt number(Nu) and friction factor(f). The empirical findings reveal intriguing trends: the friction factor experiences an upward trend with diminishing velocity, attributed to heightened molecular cohesion. Conversely, the friction factor demonstrates a decline with diminishing volume fractions, a consequence of reduced particle size. Both the nanofluid's viscosity and heat transfer coefficient exhibit a rise in tandem with augmented volume flow rate and concentration gradient. Notably, the simulation results harmonize remarkably well with experimental data. Rigorous validation against prior studies underscores the robust consistency of these outcomes. In the pursuit of augmenting heat transfer, a volume fraction of 3% emerges as particularly influential, yielding an impressive 53.8% enhancement. Minor increments in the friction factor, while present, prove negligible and can be safely overlooked.

文摘The use of nanofluids as heat transfer media represents an innovative strategy to enhance heat transfer performances.This study investigates experimentally the turbulent convective heat transfer characteristics of waterbased nanofluids containing TiO_(2),CuO,and graphene nanoplatelet(GNP)nanoparticles as they flow through a copper tube.Both the dynamic viscosity and thermal conductivity of these nanofluids were modeled and experimentally measured across varying nanoparticle concentrations(0.01,0.02,and 0.03 vol.%)and temperatures(25℃,35℃,and 45℃).The findings indicate that the behavior of nanofluids depends on the parameter used for comparison with the base fluid.Notably,both the friction factor and heat transfer coefficient increase with higher nanoparticle volume concentrations at a constant Reynolds number.The results further reveal that the GNP/water nanofluid,with a volume concentration of 0.03%at 45℃,exhibit the highest Nusselt number,followed by the CuO/water and TiO_(2)/water nanofluids,with respective increases of 17.8%,11.09%,and 8.11%.
文摘Peristaltic transport of non-Newtonian nanofluids with double diffusion is essential to biological engineering,microfluidics,and manufacturing processes.The authors tackle the key problem of Sisko nanofluids under double diffusion convection with thermal radiations and electroosmotic effects.Thestudy proposes a solution approach by using Morlet-Wavelet Neural Networks that can effectively solve this complex problem by their superior ability in the capture of nonlinear dynamics.These convergence analyses were calculated across fifty independent runs.Theil’s Inequality Coefficient and theMean Squared Error values range from 10^(-7) to 10^(-5) and 10^(-7) to 10^(-10),respectively.These values showed the proposed method is scientifically reliable and fast converging.Studies reveal that the intensity of the magnetic field causes a reduction in the flow velocity profile in the center of the channel.It is also evaluated that thermal radiations enhance the energy of the system,which promotes thermally induced diffusion and particle flow.The physical applications of this work pertain to improving fluid flow and heat transfer in engineering structures like converters or cooling devices or magnetic fluids in electronics,energy,and biomedical applications,where optimal control of fluid behavior is of paramount importance.
文摘This study explores free convective heat transfer in an electrically conducting nanofluid flow over a moving semi-infinite flat plate under the influence of an induced magnetic field and viscous dissipation.The velocity and magnetic field vectors are aligned at a distance from the plate.The Spectral Relaxation Method(SRM)is used to numerically solve the coupled nonlinear partial differential equations,analyzing the effects of the Eckert number on heat and mass transfer.Various nanofluids containing Cu,Ag,Al_(2)O_(3),and TiO_(2) nanoparticles are examined to assess how external magnetic fields influence fluid behavior.Key parameters,including the nanoparticle volume fraction ϕ,magnetic parameter M,magnetic Prandtl number Prm,and Eckert number Ec,are evaluated for their impact on velocity,induced magnetic field,and heat transfer.Results indicate that increasing the magnetic parameter reduces velocity and magnetic field components in alumina-water nanofluids,while a higher nanoparticle volume fraction enhances the thermal boundary layer.Greater viscous dissipation(Ec)increases temperature,and Al_(2)O_(3) nanofluids exhibit higher speeds than Cu,Ag,and TiO_(2) due to density differences.Silver-water nanofluids,with their higher density,move more slowly.The SRM results closely align with those from Maple,confirming the method’s accuracy.

文摘This paper discusses the model of the boundary layer(BL)flow and the heat transfer characteristics of hybrid nanofluid(HNF)over shrinking/stretching disks.In addition,the thermal radiation and the impact of velocity and thermal slip boundary conditions are also examined.The considered hybrid nano-fluid contains silver(Ag)and iron oxide(Fe_(3)O_(4))nanoparticles dispersed in the water to prepare the Ag-Fe_(3)O_(4)/water-based hybrid nanofluid.The requisite posited partial differential equations model is converted to ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations.For a numerical solution,the shooting method in Maple is employed.Moreover,the duality in solutions is achieved for both cases of the disk(stretching(λ>0)and shrinking(λ<0)).At the same time,a unique solution is observed for λ=0.No solution is found for them at λ<λ_(c),whereas the solutions are split at the λ=λ_(c).Besides,the value of the λ_(c) is dependent on the φ_(hnf).Meanwhile,the values of f″(0)and -θ′(0)intensified with increasing φ_(hnf).Stability analysis has been applied using bvp4c in MATLAB software due to a dual solution.Furthermore,analysis shows that the first solution is stable and feasible physically.For the slip parameters,an increase in the velocity slip parameter increases the velocity and shear stress profiles while increasing the temperature profile in the first solutions.While the rise in thermal slip parameter reduces the temperature profile nanoparticle volume fractions increase it.
文摘Efficient thermal management in porous media is essential for advanced engineering applications,including solar energy systems,electronic cooling,and aerospace thermal control.This study presents a comprehensive analysis of ternary hybrid nanofluids,TiO_(2)-CdTe-MoS_(2) dispersed in water,flowing over a vertical stretching or shrinking surface in a Darcy-Brinkman porous medium.The investigation accounts for the combined effects of magnetohydrodynamics,thermal radiation,viscous dissipation,and internal heat generation.In contrast to previous studies that predominantly focused on single or binary nanofluids,the present work systematically examines the thermal and hydrodynamic performance of ternary hybrid nanofluids,highlighting their enhanced heat transport capabilities in porous structures.The governing momentum and energy equations are formulated in nondimensional form and solved numerically using the shifted Legendre collocation method.The results show that increasing the magnetic parameter,M=0-4,suppresses the fluid velocity by up to 28%,while stronger thermal radiation,R=0-5,raises the near-surface temperature by approximately 32%.Viscous dissipation and internal heat generation further enhance the Nusselt number,indicating improved heat transfer performance.Overall,the findings demonstrate the synergistic influence of the three nanoparticles in optimizing flow behavior and thermal characteristics,offering valuable insights for the design of high-performance thermal management systems in energy and aerospace applications.
