Critical Review on the Molecular Behavior of Surfactants at the Oil–Water Interface During Oil Displacement

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This review systematically explores the molecular behavior of diverse surfactants (anionic, cationic, nonionic, amphoteric) at the oil–water interface through molecular dynamics simulations. It highlights their roles in reducing interfacial tension, altering interfacial structure, and enhancing oil recovery efficiency.

Production and characterization of CuNiZnFe2O4 dispersed transformer and kerosene oil based magnetic nanofluids for heat transfer applications

open access: yesAIP Advances
This study produced nanofluids via a two-step method by dispersing copper–nickel–zinc (CuNiZnFe2O4) ferrite nanocomposites in transformer and kerosene oils. A sol–gel auto-combustion approach was adopted to synthesize ferrite nanoparticles.

Entropy Generation Analysis due to Permeable Exponential Stretching in Boundary Layer Flows

open access: yesHeat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Entropy generation represents the irreversible loss of useful energy in thermal–fluid systems, directly reducing efficiency in applications, such as microelectronics cooling, nanofluid‐based heat exchangers, and polymer processing. This study investigates entropy generation in a two‐phase viscoelastic nanofluid flow over a permeable ...

Heat Transfer Performance of Biphilic Surfaces With Diatomite‐Based Composite Coatings in a Closed Thermosyphon System

open access: yesHeat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the thermal performance of innovative biphilic boiling surfaces designed for CPU cooling applications using a two‐phase closed thermosyphon (TPCT) system. The surfaces were fabricated by applying composite coatings—comprising epoxy resin and diatomite particles functionalized with APTES and PFOTS silanes— onto Al1050 ...

THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY CHARACTERISTIC OF TITANIUM DIOXIDE WATER BASED NANOFLUIDS SUBJECTED TO VARIOUS TYPES OF SURFACTANT [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Engineering Science and Technology, 2018
In nanofluid preparation, surfactants such as gum Arabic, sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, and polyvinylpyrrolidone are often added to minimize the nanoparticles sedimentation problems and eventually improve nanofluids stability. However, the inclusion of
