Upgrading of the Performance of an Air-to-Air Heat Exchanger Using Graphene/Water Nanofluid

Adnan Soezen et al.

Summary: The study aimed to improve the thermal performance of air-to-air heat recovery units using graphene/water nanofluid as compared to pure water. Results showed that graphene/water nanofluid was more efficient, with maximum thermal efficiency values at 34.1% and 20.1% for graphene/water nanofluid and pure water, respectively. The use of graphene/water nanofluid decreased thermal resistance of heat pipes, leading to increased heat transfer.

Numerical investigation of the effect of corrugation profile on the hydrothermal characteristics and entropy generation behavior of laminar forced convection of non-Newtonian water/CMC-CuO nanofluid flow inside a wavy channel

Amin Shahsavar et al.

Summary: The numerical investigation of force convection flow of non-Newtonian water/CMC-CuO NF in three wavy channels and a straight channel was conducted. The study found that the influence of Re and nanoparticle concentration phi on pressure drop, Nu, and global entropy generation rates differed. Increasing Re and decreasing phi resulted in higher Nu values for all four channels, with the sinusoidal channel having the highest Nu. The trapezoidal channel had the highest pressure drop and total global entropy generation rate.
