Figure 11 plots the effects of nanoparticle volume fraction and dimensionless time on temperature gradient for different Rayleigh numbers. As seen from the figure, temperature gradient decreases with increase in nanoparticle volume fraction for all values of Rayleigh number. ...

We investigate the onset of convective instability and subsequent transitions near it in Rayleigh-B\'enard convection (RBC) of electrically conducting low Prandtl-number (Pr) fluids in the simultaneous presence of rotation about the vertical axis and external uniform horizontal magnetic field with free-slip boundary conditions. Both three dimension...

This article used the lattice Boltzmann method to study the heat transmission of natural convective of nanofluids in a 2-D square cavity partially filled with porous medium. The nanoparticles volume fraction of Al2O3, Cu, and SiO2 were 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 3%, and 4%, which were mixed with water and 70% of ethylene glycol aqueous solution as the bas...

The realizable k - ε turbulence model was used to calculate flow and heat transfer characteristics in a rotating rectangular duct with detached pin fins in staggered arrangement. Transverse and longitudinal spacings of the pin fins were S 1 = 2.5 D and S 2 = 2.5 D, respectively. Reynolds number was 7,000 and Rotation number (Ro) varied from 0 to 1...

Turbulent flows through a cooling channel roughened with circular-arc ribs of different pitch-to-height ratios (P/H = 3.0, 5.0 and 7.5) at a fixed Reynolds number of Re b = 5600 are studied using direct numerical simulations (DNS). The pitch-to-height ratio effect on turbulent heat transfer is studied through analyses of the first-and second-order...

This article deals with a numerical analysis of magneto hydrodynamic natural convection phenomena in a prismatic heat exchanger containing Cu-nanoparticles with water as a base fluid. The nature of this fluid flow is steady, and a heat exchanger is created by involving two uniform cylinders with the same shape in a prismatic cavity. To create the heat exchanger and the buoyancy force, a hot cylinder and another cool cylinder are taken a left and right sides respectively. All other walls of this prismatic cavity are kept as heat insulation. For solving governing equations, the finite element technique is applied by involving Galerkin weighted residual method. The impact of the magnetic field, the buoyancy force, and the size of nanoparticles are explained with the help of involving parameters Rayleigh number (Ra), Hartmann number (Ha), and the nanoparticles volume fraction (ϕ). These parameters are graphically and physically explained by using streamline, isotherm, and heatline contours. The Nusselt number is also calculated and explained in detail to show the validation of this investigation. The outcomes indicate that the natural convective heat and energy transfer are improved by increasing the Rayleigh number, and the nanoparticle volume fraction. Reverse behavior is noticed for the upsurge of Hartmann number. The findings of this heat exchanger model can be pragmatic to construct an operative cooling system for numerous shape mechanical chambers.
