Convective Heat Transfer In Nanofluids, Steven Schraudner
Convective Heat Transfer In Nanofluids, Steven Schraudner
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In recent years, the study of fluid flow with nanoparticles in base fluids has attracted the attention of several researchers due to its various applications to science and engineering problems. Recent investigations on convective heat transfer in nanofluids indicate that the suspended nanoparticles markedly change the transport properties and thereby the heat transfer characteristics. Convection in saturated porous media with nanofluids is also an area of growing interest. In this thesis, we study the effects of radiation on the heat and mass transfer characteristics of nanofluid flows over solid surfaces. In Chapter 2, an investigation is made into the effects …
