Use of Nanofluids for Improved Natural Cooling of Discretely Heated Cavities

The present study is aimed at investigating the natural convection heat transfer from discrete heat sources to nanofluids. The behavior of nanofluids was investigated numerically inside a heated cavity to gain insight into convective recirculation and flow processes induced by a nanofluid. A computa...
