Heat Transfer Enhancement Using Nanofluids in an Automotive Cooling System

The increasing demand of nanofluids in industrial applications has led to increased attention from many researchers. In this paper, heat transfer enhancement using TiO2 and SiO2 nanopowders suspended in purewater is presented. The test setup includes a car radiator, and the effects on heat transfe...
