Applications of Nanofluid for Heat Transfer Enhancement

Applications of Nanofluid for Heat Transfer Enhancement explores recent progress in computational fluid dynamic and nonlinear science and its applications to nanofluid flow and heat transfer. The opening chapters explain the governing equations. Then, free and forced convection heat transfers of nanofluid are covered. Furthermore, the effect of nanofluid in the presence of an electric field, magnetic field and thermal radiation are investigated. Finally, nanofluid flow in porous media and application of nanofluid for solidification are considered. The models discussed here have applications in various fields, including mathematics, physics, information science, biology, medicine, engineering, nanotechnology and materials science. Readers will gain familiarity with the governing equations of nanofluid free and force convection heat transfer, of nanofluid in presence of thermal radiation and nanofluid in presence of electric fieldReaders will gain an understanding of the fundamentals in new numerical and analytical methods in solving to the applications of nanofluidIncludes codes for each modelling methods discussed, and advice on how to best apply them
