A Numerical Study of 2-D Convective Heat Transfer of Nanofluid (Al2O3/H2O) in a Lid Driven Cavity with Square Cylinder at the Centre

Mixed convection in sinusoidal lid driven cavity with non-uniform temperature distribution on the wall utilizing nanofluid

“…Kapil et al. (2019), [ 29 ] used numerical modeling of Al 2 O 3 nanofluid to study concentration effect. Where Grashof number was fixed at 10 4 while Reynolds number changed from 1 to 100.…”

“…When Rayleigh numbers were low the heat transfer enhancement irrespective to rotation direction while for high Rayleigh numbers it enhances in the opposing clockwise rotation. Kapil et al (2019), [29] used numerical modeling of Al 2 O 3 nanofluid to study concentration effect. Where Grashof number was fixed at 10 4 while Reynolds number changed from 1 to 100.…”

Efficiency and effectiveness enhancement of an intercooler of two‐stage air compressor by low‐cost Al2O3/water nanofluids

“…Rajput et al, 11 who investigated the use of Al 2 O 3 /Water nanofluid in a solar water heater‐flat plate collector, discovered about 21.3% increase in the collector efficiency with increasing volume fraction of Al 2 O 3 from 0.1% to 0.3%. On the other hand, Kapil et al 12 carried out the numerical investigation on mixed convective heat transfer with Al 2 O 3 /water nanofluid in an enclosed cavity. Nanoparticles concentration was varied from 1% to 5% for specific Reynolds numbers (1, 10, and 100) and reported a substantial improvement in heat transport with increasing concentration of nanoparticles 12 .…”
