In this study, tube flow of Cu-water nanofluid is considered with effect of different shaped nanoparticles. Hamilton-Crosser model is used for the effective thermal conductivity of the nanofluids. In addition, heat transfer through the tube is also studied for this problem. Exact solutions are obtained for governing modified equations with long wavelength and low Reynold number approximation case, and are discussed graphically.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
