Numerical and experimental investigations on the heat transfer enhancement in corrugated channels using SiO2–water nanofluid

In this paper, convective heat transfer of SiO2–water nanofluid flow in channels with different shapes is numerically and experimentally studied over Reynolds number ranges of 400–4000. Three different channels such as trapezoidal, sinusoidal and straight were fabricated and tested. The SiO2–water n...
