Thermal analysis of natural convection in triangular enclosures with Al2O3−Cu/water hybrid nanofluid flow
摘要
This two-dimensional numerical study investigates the unsteady natural convection heat transfer using an Al2O3–Cu/water hybrid nanofluid inside triangular enclosures with different bases and a cooled circular cylinder inside. In this research, the equations governing the flow behavior of the hybrid nanofluid have been solved using the finite element method and analyzed in the Reynolds number range of
