Abstract

Heat transfer through the horizontal eccentric annulus between eccentric rectangular ducts with different eccentricities has been calculated with various aspect ratio of inner duct. Boundary conditions are used with constant hot temperature on inner duct and constant cold temperature on the outer duct. Space between two ducts included TiO2-water Nano-fluid with different solid Volume fraction (φ = 0, 2, 5, 10 %). The eccentricity was changed with different values (E = 0.025, 0.05, 0.075 m) in left direction and aspect ratio was changed with different value (AR= 0.25, 0.375, 0.5). Results show that with an increase of aspect ratios, the average Nusselt number increases. Alsowith an increase in eccentricity value,the average Nusselt numberremains constant, and then an increase begins to occur. And the average Nusselt number increase due to an increase in nanoparticle concentration.
