Review: Enhancement of heat transfer by using Nano fluids
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
This paper gives a detailed literature study and scrutiny into the results of the research and development, applications of nanofluids in heat transfer. Nanofluid is a comparatively new technology, the studies on nanofluid are not longer. Experimental data were reviewed in this study related to the enhancement of the thermal conductivity and convective heat transfer of nanofluids relative to conventional heat transfer fluids, and assessments were made as parameters of volume concentration, material, particle size, , base fluid material, temperature, particle shape, additive, and pH were taken into account, experimental results from so many researcher were used together when assessing data. The current state of knowledge is presented as well as areas where the data are presently inconclusive or conflicting. Heat transfer enhancement can be achieved using nanofluids is to be in the 15–40% range, with a few situations resulting in orders of magnitude enhancement.
