Numerical investigation of swirling flow and heat transfer of a nanofluid in a tube with helical ribs using a two-phase model

Roohollah Hosseini Monfared et al.

Summary: In this research, fluid flow and heat transfer of a water/Al2O3 nanofluid in a tube with helical ribs were investigated. The results indicated that as Reynolds number increases, heat transfer increases, and friction factor decreases, with helical ribs enhancing heat transfer efficiency. Using nanofluid can lead to improved heat transfer and reduced friction factor.

Thermo-hydraulic and entropy generation analysis for magnetohydrodynamic pressure driven flow of nanofluid through an asymmetric wavy channel

Sumit Kumar Mehta et al.

Summary: The study shows that the application of a magnetic field can modulate the formation, size, and strength of recirculation zones in wavy passages. Heat transfer rate increases with Hartmann number for lower and higher Reynolds numbers, especially for nanofluids. The addition of nano-particles enhances entropy generation at lower Reynolds numbers but has the opposite effect at higher values.

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.

Thermal-hydraulic performance and design parameters in a curved-corrugated channel with L-shaped baffles and nanofluid

Raheem Kadhim Ajeel et al.

Summary: The study investigates the flow structure and heat transfer characteristics of a novel curved-corrugated channel using ZnO-water nanofluid and L-shaped baffles. The results show that the effects of corrugations and baffles can enhance heat transfer by forming vortex flow and increased turbulence, with inline baffle arrangement outperforming the staggered arrangement, especially at a corner angle of 30 degrees.

Raheem K. Ajeel et al.

Summary: This study numerically evaluates the flow and heat transfer characteristics of binary hybrid nanofluid in a curved-corrugated channel, revealing that the binary hybrid nanofluid improves the thermal performance of the system, with the thermal-hydraulic performance increasing as the volume fraction of nanoparticles increases. The study also finds that the best improvement in thermal-hydraulic performance occurs at a specific gap ratio of 0.3.

A novel curved-corrugated channel model: Thermal-hydraulic performance and design parameters with nanofluid

Raheem K. Ajeel et al.

Summary: In this study, the flow structure and heat transfer characteristics of the novel curved-corrugated channel were numerically investigated using ZnO-water nanofluid and E-shaped baffles. The results showed that the presence of corrugations and baffles enhanced heat transfer by promoting vortex flow and increased turbulence. Channels with baffles outperformed those without baffles in terms of thermal-hydraulic performance, with the best performance achieved at the lowest pitch angle.
