A Review on Natural Convection in Nanofluid Flow
Journal Title: Analele Universitatii "Eftimie Murgu" Resita. Fascicula de Inginerie - Year 2015, Vol 22, Issue 2
Abstract
The Heat transfer is performed in three forms including conduction, convection and radiation. Convection is one of the major modes which classifies into three categories: natural, mixed or forced convection. In recent years, much attention was given to the use of natural convection with nanofluid in engineering application, satellite, cooling system, solar collector etc. and many studies were conducted in this area. This paper reviews some results of numerical, experimental and theoretical studies in the field of natural convection heat transfer with nanofluid and application of natural convection. Finally, some suggestions are given for future studies in this area.
