Analytical modeling for the heat transfer in sheared flows of nanofluids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We developed a model for the enhancement of the heat flux by spherical and elongated nano- particles in sheared laminar flows of nano-fluids. Besides the heat flux carried by the nanoparticles the model accounts for the contribution of their rotation to ...
