Produktbeschreibung

This book is designed as a reference point for experienced engineers and scientists on the topic of heat transfer in nanofluids. It explores the heat transfer capabilities of this new category of fluids. It introduces innovative methodologies of analysis, such as entropy generation, and discusses the coupling of nanofluids with other heat transfer enhancement methodologies. In addition, it emphasizes the specific insights of current applications, such as coupling between nanofluids and porous media and use of second law-analysis of heat transfer problems in nanofluids.
