FEASIBILITY OF GLYCERIN/Al2O3 NANOFLUID FOR AUTOMOTIVE COOLING APPLICATIONS

Abstract: In this paper, the feasibility of glycerin/Al2O3 nanofluid for automotive cooling applications is experimentally studied. The test setup includes an engine model and a car radiator and the heat transfer characteristics at required operating conditions are analyzed under laminar flow conditions. Three different concentrations of nanofluids such as 0.05, 0.1 and 0.15 vol. % are used and the enhancement in the heat transfer coefficient is 62% when 0.15% volume concentration of nanoparticles are added to the base … Show more

“…Numerical research on nanofluids has emerged as a viable alternative for demonstrating their improved performance over standard heat transfer fluids. Bozorgan et al [153] numerically studied the use of CuO-water nanofluid as a coolant in the Chevrolet Suburban diesel engine radiator and the effects of the vehicle speed and the nanofluid Sundari et al2020 [195] Graphite Water 0.2,0.5,0.8,1 and 1.5 vol. % K = 39.72% at 1.5 vol.…”

“…Nanofluids have attracted much attention in the past several years thanks to the small sizes and large specific surface areas of nanoparticles [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. In general, nanofluids are defined as a new kind of heat transfer fluid with nanosized particles dispersing into conventional working fluids, such as water, methanol, ethanol, glycol and oil [10,11].…”
