The Effects of Thermophoresis and Brownian Motion on the Flow of a Nanofluid in Rectangular Channels Using Buongiorno’s Model
Ibrahim Ghalayini
Abstract:Nanofluids is an emerging sector of working fluids that promise to enhance heat transfer by increasing fluids’ thermal conductivity by inputting metal nanoparticles into a base fluid. There are two ways of modelling nanofluids; single-phase and two-phase. Since nanoparticle sedimentation may influence heat extraction, the Buongiorno two-phase model will be of focus to understand Brownian motion as well as thermophoretic effects on nanofluids. This research presents the case of investigating the thermal perform… Show more
