Using of Multiwall Carbon Nanotube Based Nanofluid in the Heat Pipe to Get Better Thermal Performance

Thermal performance of a cylindrical heat pipe is investigated numerically. Three different types of water based nanofluids, namely, Al 2 O 3 + Water, Diamond + Water, and Multi-Wall Carbon Nano tube (MWCNT) + Water, have been used. The influence of using the simple nanofluids and MWCNT nanofluid on...
