Synopsis<\/p>

Development of Stable Nanofluids for Heat Transfer Enhancement Applications<\/strong><\/p>

Nanofluids with their enhanced thermal conductivity are believed to be a promising coolant in various heat transfer applications. Both experimental work and numerical simulations were carried out to determine the heat transfer enhancement for different types of nanofluids including CNT-Nanofluids, ironoxide nanofluids, and metal-metaloxide-carbon based ternary hybrid nanofluids. For the CNT-Nanofluids, the concentrations of CNT were varied from 0.01 wt% to 0.1 wt%. The stability of nanofluids is measured in terms of its concentration as a function of sediment time using UV-Vis Spectrophotometer. The thermal conductivity of the nanofluids is measured using KD-2 Pro thermal conductivity meter. CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulations were also carried out to further study the heat transfer enhancement in heat exchangers. Thermal conductivity, density and rheology of the nanofluids were also measured as a function of temperature. The results showed high increase in the thermal conductivity and nearly 70% enhancement in heat transfer with increase in flow rate. Numerical results exhibited good agreement with the experimental results with deviation of about 3.0%. Corrosion effects of CNT-Nanofluids on three different metals, the aluminium alloy, stainless steel and copper, were also investigated.<\/p>
