Natural convective heat transfer characteristics of Al2O3-water nanofluids in a vertical cylindrical enclosure

The present numerical investigation deals with the natural convection in a vertical cylindrical enclosure with a water-based Al2O3 nanofluids. The enclosure with an aspect ratio of 1 (= diameter / height) is filled with Al2O3-water nanofluids or pure water. These fluids are isothermally heated from...
