Numerical Validation of Experimental Heat Transfer Coefficient with SiO2 Nanofluid Flowing in a Tube with Twisted Tape Inserts
A numerical model has been developed for turbulent flow of nanofluids in a tube with twisted tape inserts. The model is based on the assumption that van Driest eddy diffusivity equation can be applied by considering the coefficient and the Prandtl index in momentum and heat respectively as a variab...
