Application of Fourier Sine Transform to Carbon Nanotubes Suspended in Ethylene Glycol for the Enhancement of Heat Transfer

Abstract

There is no denying fact that nanoparticles of carbon nanotubes are employed to improve the performance of thermal stability in comparison with traditional nanoparticles, this is because nanoparticles of carbon nanotubes possess outstanding material properties. In this manuscript, a mathematical model of mixed convective flow based on carbon nanotubes suspended in ethylene glycol has been developed and derived by means of Fourier Sine transform. In order to analyze the thermophysical properties of nanofluid, the temperature and velocity profiles have been investigated through fractional derivative and integral transforms. The comparative analysis of single and multi-walled carbon nanotubes has been presented for the sake of enhancement of heat transfer. It is worth mentioning that embedded rheological parameters have shown the sensitivity for the enhancement of heat transfer with and without fractional techniques through graphical illustration.

Numerical Assessment of Nanofluid Natural Convection Using Local RBF Method Coupled with an Artificial Compressibility Model

“…Natural convection has become an active research topic due to its lower cost and wide applications in engineering. Several models were developed for calculating the efficiency of thermal conductivity in solid and fluid systems [1][2][3][4][5][6]. In [7], Choi showed that adding some nano metal particles to the base fluid increases its conductivity.…”

Revisiting thermo-physical property models of Al2O3-Water nanofluid for natural convective flow

“…Mansour et al [ 2 ] examined how different models of nanofluid's properties affected the thermo-hydraulic behavior of pipe flow. Besides, applying Fourier sine transforms to find the exact solution of nanofluids' temperature and velocity profiles opened the door to groundbreaking research in the augmentation of heat transfer performance using nanofluids [ 3 , 4 ].…”

The Fractional Investigation of Some Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations by Using an Efficient Procedure

“…In many cases, analytical or exact solutions are very difficult to investigate. Therefore, mathematicians have tried to develop and use several numerical techniques with fractional derivative and integral operators [23][24][25]. In this connection, in 2017, Li et al presented three efficient techniques, namely the finite difference method, the Galerkin finite element method, and the spectral method, for the solutions of some FPDEs [26].…”
