CFD simulation of forced convection heat transfer enhancement in pipe using Al2O3/water nanofluid

The advanced concepts of nano fluids offer an improvement in heat transfer compared to conventional heat transfer fluids. In recent years, researchers have been more attentive to the importance of higher thermal properties of nanofluids, especially in thermal conductivity and heat transfer. In t...
