Numerical investigation on natural convective heat transfer of Al2O3-water nanofluids (About the effect of thermophysical properties)

Nanofluids are suspension dispersed nano-scale particles in a base fluid. In this study, natural convective heat transfer characteristics of Al2O3-water nanofluids in a vertical cylindrical container heated from below and cooled from above are investigated by transient three-dimensional numerical co...
