A modified two-phase mixture model of nanofluid flow and heat transfer in a 3-D curved microtube
This study numerically investigated the laminar mixed-convection heat transfer of different water-copper nanofluids inside a microtube with curvature angle of 90°, using a finite volume method. The Reynolds number of modeling was 10, nanoparticles volume fractions were chosen from 0.0% to 6.0% and R...
