Study of Nanoparticle Fluid Mixtures for Heat Enhancement and Heat Storage in a Cavity   H. Acheheb and M.Z. Saghir 2017/04/25

Abstract

Nanofluids is a class of fluid which contains a solid particle. The base fluid is usually water. The importance of such fluid is its capability of enhanced heat removal. The addition of microencapsulated particle enhances the heat storage. Results revealed an improvement in heat storage. This finding is obvious by examining the Nusselt number for different cases.
