Validation of the Laboratory Facility for the Nanofluids Forced Convection Research
摘要
This paper deals with a laboratory setup intended for nanofluid forced convection research. It presents a technical solution for the part of the laboratory facility related to the measurement of convective heat transfer parameters and the results of its validation. The facility parameters were validated with distilled water, and the measured data were compared with the results obtained from the theory equations. It has been shown that the measured data match theoretical data very well. The maximum relative deviation of the experimental and theoretical local Nusselt number is 9.8%, which follows the values from the literature.
