Numerical and experimental investigation of heat transfer enhancement in a microtube using nanofluids

Forced convective laminar flow of different types of nanofluids such as Al2O3 and SiO2, with a nanoparticle size of 30nm, and different volume fractions ranging from 0.5% to 1% using water as base fluids were investigated numerically and experimentally. This investigation covers the Reynolds number...
