Thermal Transport Analysis of Finned Car Radiator with Nanofluid Based Coolants

Abstract

newline Nanofluid is a novel type of fluid that contains nanoparticles (1-100 nm) dispersed newlinethroughout a base fluid. The addition of these nanoparticles often made of metal or newlinemetal oxide, enhances the thermal conductivity of conventional coolants. This leads to newlineimproved conduction and convection coefficients, thereby enabling more efficient newlineheat transfer from the coolant. A lightweight and high-performance automobile newlineradiator can be designed using advanced nanofluids that possess superior thermal newlineproperties. This study aims to investigate the thermal properties and heat transport newlinecapacity of mono, binary and ternary hybrid nanofluids as coolants in the radiator. In newlinethe cooling system, high-temperature coolants are consistently demanded. It has been newlineelaborated in the first chapter as an introduction to the thesis
