Combined convection nanofluid flow and heat transfer over microscale forward-facing step
The laminar mixed convection flow of nanofluids over a 3D horizontal microscale forward-facing step (MFFS) was numerically investigated using a finite volume method. Various nanoparticle materials, such as SiO2, Al2O3, CuO, and ZnO, were dispersed in ethylene glycol as a base fluid with volume fract...
