Book Convection in Ferro Nanofluids  Experiments and Theory

Download or read book Convection in Ferro Nanofluids Experiments and Theory written by Aleksandra A. Bozhko and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-25 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the experimental and theoretical study of convection in non-isothermal ferro-nanofluids (FNFs). Since FNFs are not transparent and magnetic fields are very sensitive to the shape of the boundary between magnetic and nonmagnetic media, special flow visualization techniques based on the use of thermo-sensitive liquid crystal films, infrared cameras, as well as local and integral temperature sensors are discussed in the book. This book considers several major configurations of convective chambers and the applied magnetic field. For each of them, the stability boundaries are determined theoretically and experimentally. The physical types of dominant instabilities and the characteristics of their interactions are subsequently established using linear and weakly non-linear hydrodynamic stability analyses and elements of bifurcation theory. The book also discusses the potential of using magnetically controlled ferro-nanofluids as a heat carrier in situations where heat removal by natural convection is not possible due to the lack of gravity (orbital stations) or extreme confinement (microelectronics). Researchers and practitioners working in the areas of fluid mechanics, hydrodynamic stability, and heat and mass transfer will benefit from this book.

Book Heat Transfer Due to Laminar Natural Convection of Nanofluids

Download or read book Heat Transfer Due to Laminar Natural Convection of Nanofluids written by De-Yi Shang and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-30 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a theoretical study of heat transfer due to laminar natural convection of nanofluids, using Al2O3-water nanofluid as an example. An innovative method of similarity transformation of velocity fields on laminar boundary layers is applied for the development of a mathematical governing model of natural convection with actual nanofluids, and a novel model of the nanofluid's variable thermophysical properties is derived by a mathematical analysis based on the developed model of variable physical properties of fluids combined with the model of the nanofluid's thermal conductivity and viscosity. Based on these, the physical property factors of nanofluids are produced, which leads to a simultaneous solution for deep investigations of hydrodynamics and heat transfer of nanofluid's natural convection. The book also proposes novel predictive formulae for the evaluation of heat transfer of Al2O3-water nanofluid’s natural convection. The formulae have reliable theoretical and practical value because they are developed by rigorous theoretical analysis of heat transfer combined with full consideration of the effects of the temperature-dependent physical properties of nanofluids and the nanoparticle shape factor and concentration, as well as variations of fluid boundary temperatures. The conversion factors proposed help to turn the heat transfer coefficient and rate of fluid natural convection into those of nanofluid natural convection. Furthermore, several calculation examples are provided to demonstrate the heat transfer application of the proposed predictive formulae.

Book Micro and Nanofluid Convection with Magnetic Field Effects for Heat and Mass Transfer Applications using MATLAB

Download or read book Micro and Nanofluid Convection with Magnetic Field Effects for Heat and Mass Transfer Applications using MATLAB written by Chakravarthula S K Raju and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2022-06-02 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Micro and Nanofluid Convection with Magnetic Field Effects for Heat and Mass Transfer Applications using MATLAB® examines the performance of micro and nanofluids with various physical effects such as magnetic field, slip effects, radiation and heat sources. Heat and mass transfer enhancement techniques are widely used in many applications in the heating and cooling or freezing process to make possible a reduction in weight and size or enhance performance during heat and mass exchanges. The book covers the two categories of flow techniques, active and passive. It discusses various considerations in the engineering sciences in the melting process, polymer industry and in metallurgy. To be more precise, it may be pointed out that many metal surgical developments involve the cooling of continuous strips or filaments by drawing them through a quiescent fluid, and in that process of drawing, these strips are sometimes stretched. In all these cases, the properties of the final product depend, to a great extent, on the rate of cooling by drawing such strips in an electrically conducting fluid subject to a magnetic field and thermal radiation. - Provides information about the governing equations for all three types of flow geometries - Explains micro polar fluid flow modeling - Offers detailed coverage of boundary value problems using MATLAB®
