Abstract
In this study, the influence of various factors: nanoparticle type (Al2O3, SiO2, and TiO2), concentration (0.05%, 0.1%, and 1%), and flow velocity (Re = 50, 100, and 200) on various forces (slip mechanism) act on nanoparticles is analyzed which can affect heat transport characteristics. The study reveals that the concentration is a more significant parameter for enhancement in Nusselt number compared to others. All nanoparticles have the same size of 50 nm and are spherical in shape. The variation in nanoparticle type results in change in density, thermal conductivity, specific heat, and viscosity of nanofluids. The variation in nanoparticle type influences the gravity, Brownian, Thermophoresis the most. On the other hand, the change in velocity of nanofluids influences the Drag, Thermophoresis, Shaffman Lift, Magnus force the most.
