Heat Transfer Characteristics of Nanofuid Flow around an Elliptical Cylinder

Abstract: This paper presents the results of extensive numerical simulations, based on the control volume method, of 2D nanofluid fluid flow around a heated elliptical cylinder with different incidence angle and aspect ratio. The continuity and momentum equations have been numerically solved using a SIMPLE algorithm. Two types of nanofluids consisting of Al 2 O 3 and CuO nanoparticles dispersed separately in base fluids of water and ethylene glycol mixture 60:40 (by mass), were selected to evaluate their effect on the f… Show more

“…In the homogenous method, 100 it is assumed that the solid particles and the base fluid are in ther-101 mal equilibrium and have the same temperature and velocity. 102 There are many numerical studies in this field which have been 103 used homogeneous approach for simulation of the nanofluids 104 [14][15][16][17][18][19]. Purusothaman et al [20], Cho et al [21], Sheremet et al 105 [22], Alsabery et al [23] and Mahmoodi [24] presented a numerical 106 study of natural and mixed convection heat transfer of nanofluid 107 flow in different geometries.…”
