Turbulent heat transfer and nanofluid flow in a triangular duct with vortex generators

Triangular conduits provide low pressure drop and low heat transfer coefficient compared to circular and other shapes of non-circular passages. The advantage of their low pressure drop motivated this research to increase the heat transfer rate by using two passive methods; vortex generators and nano...
