Experimental determination of forced convective heat transfer coefficient with nanofluid in a plain tube

Nowadays, lots of industrial and consumer product have heat transfer as their most vital process. But there is a limit of the heat transfer due to the inherently poor thermal performance of conventional fluids and restricted in developing energy efficient heat transfer fluids.
