“…The birth of NFs as advanced thermal fluids in the area of thermal management is a laudable and notable feat. NFs (mono and hybrid) have been extensively researched and proven to be better than conventional thermal fluids, and this is due to their enhanced thermophysical and convective properties [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. The application of diverse mono and hybrid NFs in various thermal systems has been studied experimentally [5,6,12] and numerically [14][15][16][17], and found to improve heat transfer characteristics better than traditional thermal fluids.…”

Influence of Preparation Characteristics on Stability, Properties, and Performance of Mono- and Hybrid Nanofluids: Current and Future Perspective

Nanofluids (NFs) synthesized via the suspension of diverse nanoparticles into conventional thermal fluids are known to exhibit better thermal, optical, tribological, and convective properties, photothermal conversion, and heat transfer performance in comparison with traditional thermal fluids. Stability is pivotal to NF preparation, properties, performance, and application. NF preparation is not as easy as it appears, but complex in that obtaining a stable NF comes with the harnessing of different preparation parameters. These parameters include stirring duration and speed, volume, density, base fluid type, weight/volume concentration, density, nano-size, type of mono or hybrid nanoparticles used, type and quantity of surfactant used, and sonication time, temperature, mode, frequency, and amplitude. The effect of these preparation parameters on the stability of mono and hybrid NFs consequently affects the thermal, optical, rheological, and convective properties, and photothermal conversion and heat transfer performances of NFs in various applications. A comprehensive overview of the influence of these preparation characteristics on the thermal, optical, rheological, and properties, photothermal conversion, and heat transfer performance is presented in this paper. This is imperative due to the extensive study on mono and hybrid NFs and their acceptance as advanced thermal fluids along with the critical importance of stability to their properties and performance. The various preparation, characterization, and stability methods deployed in NF studies have been compiled and discussed herein. In addition, the effect of the various preparation characteristics on the properties (thermal, optical, rheological, and convective), photothermal conversion, and heat transfer performances of mono and hybrid NFs have been reviewed. The need to achieve optimum stability of NFs by optimizing the preparation characteristics is observed to be critical to the obtained results for the properties, photothermal conversion, and heat transfer performance studies. As noticed that the preparation characteristics data are not detailed in most of the published works and thus making it mostly impossible to reproduce NF experimental studies, stability, and results; future research is expected to address this gap. In addition, the research community should be concerned about the aging and reusability of NFs (mono and hybrid) in the nearest future.

“…Meanwhile, CFD simulations were used in SPHE studies to validate the analytical calculations 8,13,49 or to assess the experimental results. 50 In addition, studying the effects of different nanofluids on thermal and hydraulic performance improvement were conducted in SPHEs recently by Bahiraei et al, [51][52][53] Mazaheri and Bahiraei, 54 Rostami et al, 55 and Khodabandeh et al 56 According to previous research available on the thermal design of SPHEs, few researchers tried to propose a general optimal design algorithm for the SPHEs to consider all aspects of design factors including thermal, hydraulic, geometric, and economic parameters. Available studies are mostly focused on finding optimized SPHEs based on one or two design factors.…”

The present study investigates exergy analysis of optimal designed spiral plate heat exchangers (SPHEs) based on energy criteria. A new design algorithm is developed to obtain a higher overall heat transfer coefficient and more compact SPHE by (1) maintaining the geometric aspect ratio (GAR), (2) enhancing channel pressure drops, and (3) minimizing the total costs. Mathematical modeling of spiral turns of designed SPHEs as a hypothetical network of heat exchangers (HEs), and implementation of energy balance
