Summary: This study innovatively simulated two-phase nanofluid natural convection to control heat transfer rates under different heat flux, with the aim of achieving uniform temperature profiles and T-max < 50 degrees C. The results showed that the best cases for controlling heat transfer were parallelogram enclosures with positive angles in Cases 1, 3, and 4, as well as rectangular enclosures.

Summary: The study investigates the natural convection and anisotropic heat transfer of ferro-nanofluids in partially heated enclosures, showing that heat transfer can be controlled by adjusting the external magnetic field. In pure heat conduction, increasing the Hartmann number and nanoparticle concentration raises the anisotropic thermal conductivity; in natural convection, increasing the magnetic field intensity also increases Lorentz force resistance.

Summary: The study found that the best heat transfer enhancement is achieved when setting p = 2%, oscillating frequency is 560 Hz, amplitude is 30 um, and nanoparticle diameter is 100 nm. Comparison between SPM and DPM showed that DPM cooling is more realistic, with thermophoresis force being the most significant force affecting the heat transfer coefficient.

Summary: A rigorous mathematical approach is proposed to understand the effects of Buongiorno nanofluid model on heat and mass transfer rates in various fluid flow geometries, explaining analytically why enhancements or reductions in heat and mass transfer occur. Two boundary constraints commonly used in the model are taken into account and tested for accuracy, providing insights into the quantitative values and general trends of heat and mass transfer.

Summary: This study comprehensively examines natural convection in complex enclosure forms, considering the influence of nanofluids, porous layer thickness, and number of undulations. It evaluates the impact of different shapes, positions, and sizes of inner bodies on the flow field. Limitations of the existence of inner bodies in certain enclosure shapes and the effectiveness of wavy forms as inner bodies were identified.

Summary: This comprehensive review discusses the implementation of inner bodies in cavities filled with regular and nanofluids, focusing on both natural and mixed convection modes. The study of nanofluid gained importance in the heat transfer field about two decades ago, with experimental studies establishing correlations between nanoparticle specifications and thermo-physical properties. However, most theoretical investigations have focused on the use of nanoparticles in various geometrical conduits and enclosures. The review analyzes the implementation of nanofluid in cavities involving inner bodies using single and two-phase models, highlighting the limitations of the latter due to higher costs and lower utilization by researchers.

Summary: This study conducts a numerical analysis on the effects of non-uniform and asymmetric heating on the conjugate thermal transport characteristics for nanofluid in a rectangular minichannel. The results indicate that the average heat transfer rate is higher under non-uniform asymmetric heating compared to uniform heating, and the impact of asymmetric non-uniform heating is greater than that of non-uniform heating alone.

Summary: Implementing splitters in microchannels enhances fluid distribution and nanofluids offer a promising approach to improving heat transfer efficiency. This study numerically investigates the integration of splitters and nanofluids in a copper-water-filled channel with varying Reynolds numbers and volume fractions. Results show that heat transfer augmentation occurs with increased flow and nanofluid usage compared to conventional fluids. The findings can be used with optimization techniques to improve heat transfer efficiency in practical applications such as electronic-cooling devices.

Summary: This review paper discusses active, passive, and hybrid methods to enhance heat transfer rate, with a focus on the passive method of using nanofluids. The governing equations and modeling methods for nanofluid flows are provided, along with a summary of advanced investigations on single-phase and two-phase flow regimes. Although there are conflicting results among researchers, most conclude that numerical modeling based on two-phase models provides a better prediction than single-phase models.

Summary: This paper comprehensively reviews the studies on nanofluid flow within the transitional flow regions for internal flow applications. It discusses the properties of nanofluids, including nanoparticle type and concentration, and base fluid type, and identifies and discusses the pressure drop and heat transfer features of nanofluid flow within the transitional flow regions. The effect of nanoparticle addition on the transition onset is also discussed, and recommendations for further research are proposed based on available results in the literature.

Summary: Recent studies in thermal engineering found that there is little research on employing nanofluid as a working fluid in a specific channel while considering both turbulators and magnetic field effect. This review focuses on the single and combined effects of nanofluid type, volume fraction, channel and turbulator geometry, magnetic field type, and flow regime on the heat transfer enhancement of these systems.

Summary: Cooling by impinging droplets has been studied for decades, with recent interest focused on the potential heat transfer enhancement using nanofluids. The physical mechanisms behind this enhancement, such as nanofluid rheology and nanoparticle impact dynamics, are still being explored. More research is needed to clarify the mechanism of enhancement in spray cooling using nanofluids.
