Performance analysis of a direct-absorption parabolic trough solar collector
A parabolic trough solar collector is a dominant technology for high-temperature industrial applications, but efficient use of a conventional surface-based parabolic trough solar collector (SBPTSC) is limited by its high radiation loss due to the high ...

Simulation of copper-water nanofluid in a microchannel in slip flow regime using the lattice Boltzmann method with heat flux boundary condition [PDF]
Laminar forced convection heat transfer of water–Cu nanofluids in a microchannel is studied using the double population Thermal Lattice Boltzmann method (TLBM). The entering flow is at a lower temperature compared to the microchannel walls.

Thermophysical properties of nanofluids [PDF]
This paper discusses the current state of knowledge of the thermophysical properties of nanofluids. The viscosity, thermal conductivity and heat transfer of nanofluids are considered. Experimental and molecular dynamics data are presented. It is shown that viscosity and thermal conductivity of nanofluids generally cannot be described by classical ...

Heat transfer characteristics of closed-end thermosyphon (CE-TPCT)
This study investigated the heat transfer characteristics of a Closed-End Thermosyphon (CE-TPCT) made of copper tubes with 5.5 mm diameter. The experiments were conducted with working substance filling rates of 0%, 30%, 50%, and 70% of the volumetric ...

Analysis of Gasketed-plate Heat Exchanger Performance Using Nanofluid [PDF]
A heat exchanger using nanofluid needs to operate at optimum mass concentration level to get the maximum heat transfer performance. A numerical analysis is performed on the heat transfer and pressure drop of water-based γ-Al2O3 nanofluid gasketed-plate ...

Thermal analysis for hybrid nanofluid past a cylinder exposed to magnetic field
This work has developed mathematical models for thermal transport by treating Al2O3 as nanoparticles of a single type and Al2O3 and Cu as hybrid nanoparticles in a hyperbolic tangent fluid.

Discrete phase approach for nanofluids flow in pipe [PDF]
Nanofluid is known as a new generation of fluid and it has been introduced almost several decades ago. But its effectiveness in practical thermal engineering applications has started to diminish with time due to the several factors such as physical ...
