“…As well-known, the palm oil is widely employed in heat exchangers. Hussein et al 46 tested the effect of the presence of nanoparticles suspended in palm oil, and they observed a decrease of friction factor with increased Reynolds number and decreased nanoparticle concentrations. They also noticed that stable nanofluids lead to a significant enhancement of thermal properties.…”

Recently, many researchers have focused on their studies on the analysis of nanofluid flows due to their participation in the enhancement of heat transfer rates in industrial processes. The ordinary fluids, such as water, mineral oils, and so on, are known for their low thermal conductivity in heat transfer processes. A significant enhancement in the thermal properties of ordinary fluid may be obtained by adding nanoparticles having a diameter of less than 100 nm or suspension of fibers. Better spreading, wetting, dispersion, and stability and with acceptable viscosity are the main advantageous properties of nanofluids on a solid surface. The nanofluids are encountered in various thermal engineering systems such as in heat exchangers, refrigeration, thermal management of fuel cells, cooling of nuclear reactors, microelectromechanical systems, and others. In particular, the thermal conversion is known as a great application of nanotechnology, and many studies have been achieved with such fluids in heat exchangers. Therefore, this paper aims to present a global insight into the different applications of nanofluids in various heat exchangers, that is, heat pipe and plate-fin heat exchangers. All research works have been summarized into three main parts: laminar, transition, and turbulent nanofluid flow regimes.

“…Trends in viscosity fluctuations with temperature are explored and it was confirmed that the viscosity decreases with the increase in temperature. 46,82,109 This was attributable to an increase in intermolecular distance as the temperature increased. At different temperatures, the pattern of viscosity change of oils with and without the addition of NPs was examined.…”
