The effect of various conductivity and viscosity models considering Brownian motion on nanofluids mixed convection flow and heat transfer

In this paper the effect of using various models for conductivity and viscosity considering Brownian motion of nanoparticles is investigated. This study is numerically conducted inside a cavity full of Water-Al2O3 nanofluid at the case of mixed convection heat transfer. The effect of some parameters...
