Hybrid Nanofluid

A numerical analysis has been conducted to show the effects of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) and Joule heating on heat transfer phenomenon in a lid driven triangular cavity. The heat transfer fluid (HTF) has been considered as water based hybrid nanofluid composed of equal quantities of Cu and TiO2 nanoparticles. The bottom wall of the cavity is undulated in sinusoidal pattern and cooled isothermally. The left vertical wall of the cavity is heated while the inclined side is insulated. The two dimensional governing partial differential equations of heat transfer and fluid flow with appropriate boundary conditions have been solved by using Galerkin's finite element method built in COMSOL Multyphysics. The effects of Hartmann number, Joule heating, number of undulation and Richardson number on the flow structure and heat transfer characteristics have been studied in details. The values of Prandtl number and solid volume fraction of hybrid nanoparticles have been considered as fixed. Also, the code validation has been shown. The numerical results have been presented in terms of streamlines, isotherms and average Nusselt number of the hybrid nanofluid for different values of governing parameters. The comparison of heat transfer rate by using hybrid nanofluid, Cu-water nanofluid,  TiO2 -water nanofluid and clear water has been also shown. Increasing wave number from 0 to 3 enhances the heat transfer rate by 16.89%. The enhanced rate of mean Nusselt number for hybrid nanofluid is found as 4.11% compared to base fluid.

Research Attention

In the previous decennium, considerable applications ofnanoparticles have been developed in the area of science. Nanoparticles with micropolar fluid suspended in conventional fluids can increase the heat transfer. Micropolar fluids have attracted much research attention because of their use in industrial processes. Exotic lubricants, liquid crystal solidification, cooling of a metallic plate in a bath, extrusion of metals and polymers, drawing of plastic films, manufacturing of glass and paper sheets, and colloidal suspension solutions are just a few examples. The primary goal of this studywas to see how radiation and velocity slip affect the mixed convection of sodium alginate nanofluid flow over a non-isothermal wedge in a saturated porous media.In this communication, theTiwari and Das model was employed to investigate the micropolarnanofluid flow via mixed convection over aradiated wedge in a saturated porous medium with the velocity slip condition. Nanoparticles of silver (Ag) wreused in asodium alginate base fluid. The intended system of governing equations is converted to a set of ordinary differential equations and then solved applying the finite difference method. Variousfluid flows, temperatures, and physical quantities of interest were examined. The effects of radiation on the skin friction are negligible in the case of forced and mixed convection, whereas radiation increases the skin friction in free convection. It is demonstrated that the pressure gradient, solid volume fraction, radiation, and slip parameters enhance the Nusselt number, whereas the micropolar parameter reduces the Nusselt number.

In this study, the energy transference of a hybrid Al2O3-Cu-H2O nanosuspension within a lid-driven heated square chamber is simulated. The domain is affected by a horizontal magnetic field. The vertical sidewalls are insulated and the horizontal borders of the chamber are held at different fixed temperatures. A fourth-order accuracy compact method is applied to work out the vorticity-stream function view of incompressible Oberbeck–Boussinesq equations. The method used is validated against previous numerical and experimental works and good agreement is shown. The flow patterns, Nusselt numbers, and velocity profiles are studied for different Richardson numbers, Hartmann numbers, and the solid volume fraction of hybrid nanoparticles. Flow field and heat convection are highly affected by the magnetic field and volume fraction of each type of nanoparticles in a hybrid nanofluid. The results show an improvement of heat transfer using nanoparticles. To achieve a higher heat transmission rate by using the hybrid nanofluid, flow parameters like Richardson number and Hartmann number should be considered.

AbstractThis study has been conducted to focus on natural convection flow of Casson fluid through an annular microchannel formed by two cylinders in the presence of magnetic field. The process of heat generation/absorption is taken into consideration. Combined effects of various parameters such as porous medium, velocity slip and temperature jump are considered. Solution of the present mathematical model is obtained numerically using fourth-fifth order Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method. The flow velocity, thermal field, skin friction and Nusselt number are scrutinized with respect to the involved parameters of interest such as fluid wall interaction parameter, rarefaction parameter, Casson parameter and Darcy number with the aid of graphs. It is established that higher values of Casson parameter increases the skin friction coefficient. Further it is obtained that rate of heat transfer diminishes as fluid wall interaction parameter increases.

Direct Forcing

A computationally efficient Immersed Boundary Method (IBM) based on penalized direct forcing was employed to determine the permeability of a real porous medium. The porous medium was composed of about 9000 glass beads with an average particle diameter of 1.93 mm and a porosity of 0.367. The forcing of the IBM depends on the local solid volume fraction within a computational grid cell. The latter could be obtained from a high-resolution X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) scan of the packing. An experimental facility was built to determine the permeability of the packing experimentally. Numerical simulations were performed for the same packing based on the data from the CT scan. For a scan resolution of 0.1 mm the numerical value for the permeability was nearly 70% larger than the experimental value. An error analysis indicated that the scan resolution of 0.1 mm was too coarse for this packing.

This study deals with natural convection unsteady flow of CNTs − Fe 3 O 4 /water hybrid nanofluids due to stretching surface embedded in a porous medium. Both hybrid nanoparticles of SWCNTs − Fe 3 O 4 and MWCNTs − Fe 3 O 4 are used with water as base fluid. Effects of hybrid nanoparticles volume friction, second-order velocity slip condition, and temperature-dependent viscosity are investigated. The governing problem of flow is solved numerically employing spectral quasilinearization method (SQLM). The results are presented and discussed via embedded parameters using graphs and tables. The results disclose that the thermal conductivity of CNTs − Fe 3 O 4 / H 2 O hybrid nanofluids is higher than that of CNTs − H 2 O nanofluids with higher value of hybrid nanoparticle volume fraction. Also, the results show that momentum boundary layer reduces while the thermal boundary layer gros with higher values of temperature-dependent viscosity and second-order velocity slip parameters. The skin friction coefficient improves, and the local heat transfer rate decreases with higher values of nanoparticle volume fraction, temperature-dependent viscosity, and second-order velocity slip parameters. Furthermore, more skin friction coefficients and lower local heat transfer rate are reported in the CNTs − Fe 3 O 4 / H 2 O hybrid nanofluid than in the CNTs − H 2 O nanofluid. Thus, the obtained results are promising for the application of hybrid nanofluids in the nanotechnology and biomedicine sectors.

The problem is modeled using Caputo fractional derivatives and thermophysical properties of hybrid nanoparticles. The influence of concerned parameters is investigated physically and graphically on the heat, concentration and flow. The effect of volume fraction on thermal conductivity of hybrid nanofluids is observed.

Pressure Driven Flow

Planar flow in the interfacial region of an open porous medium is investigated by finding solutions for Stokes flow in a channel partially filled with an array of circular cylinders beside one wall. The cylinders are in a square array oriented across the flow and are widely spaced, so that the solid volume fraction ϕ is 0.1 or less. For this spacing, singularity methods are appropriate and so they are used to find solutions for both planar Couette flow and Poiseuille flow in the open portion of the channel. The solutions, accurate to O(ϕ), are used to calculate the apparent slip velocity at the interface, Us, and results obtained for Us are presented in terms of a dimensionless slip velocity. For shear-driven flow, this dimensionless quantity is found to depend only weakly on ϕ and to be independent of the height of the array relative to the height of the channel and independent of the cylinder size relative to the height of the channel. For pressure-driven flow, Us is found to be less than that under comparable shear-flow conditions, and dependent on cylinder size and filling fraction in this case. Calculations also show that the external flow penetrates the porous medium very little, even for sparse arrays, and that Us is about one quarter of the velocity predicted by the Brinkman model.

Two different direct-forcing immersed boundary methods (IBMs) were applied for the purpose of simulating slow flow through a real porous medium: the volume penalization IBM and the stress IBM. The porous medium was a random close packing of about 9000 glass beads in a round tube. The packing geometry was determined from an X-ray computed tomography (CT) scan in terms of the distribution of the truncated solid volume fraction (either 0 or 1) on a three-dimensional Cartesian grid. The scan resolution corresponded to 19.3 grid cells over the mean bead diameter. A facility was built to experimentally determine the permeability of the packing. Numerical simulations were performed for the same packing based on the CT scan data. For both IBMs the numerically determined permeability based on the Richardson extrapolation was just 10% lower than the experimentally found value. As expected, at finite grid resolution the stress IBM appeared to be the most accurate IBM.
