The Effect of Nanofluid Volume Concentration on Heat Transfer and Friction Factor inside a Horizontal Tube
The additives of solid nanoparticles to liquids are significant enhancement of heat transfer and hydrodynamic flow. In this study, the thermal properties of three types of nanoparticles (Al2O3, TiO2, and SiO2) dispersed in water as a base fluid were measured experimentally. Forced convection heat tr...
