Heat Transfer Augmentation in the Straight Channel by Using Nanofluids

Heat transfer enhancement of nanofluids under turbulent flow through a straight square channel under constant heat flux conditions at the upper and lower walls is studied numerically. The nanofluids are prepared as solid nanoparticles of CuO, TiO2 and Al2O3 suspended in water. CFD analysis by FLUENT...
