    Turbulent forced convective flow in a conical diffuser : hybrid and single nanofluids
    (Elsevier, 2023) Iachachene, Farida; Haddad, Zoubida; Arıcı, Müslüm; Jamei, Mehdi; Mataoui, Amina
    Turbulent forced convective flow of hybrid and single nanofluids in a conical diffuser is investigated numerically. Simulations are conducted for various Reynolds (Re=10000-70000) and different concentrations (ϕ=0-1.5 vol%) at equal ratio of TiO2:SiO2. The impact of using theoretical and experimental correlations for dynamic viscosity and thermal conductivity on turbulent forced convection of TiO2 showed that the mean Nusselt (Nu) number is considerably reduced with the use of the experimental model. However, when the theoretical model is used, Nu varies insignificantly. Addition of TiO2 nanoparticles decreases the heat transfer inside the diffuser, whereas addition of TiO2–SiO2 nanoparticles either enhances or decreases the heat transfer rate. Compared to the pure fluid, hybrid nanofluids show a maximum enhancement of 5% and a maximum decrease of 9.7% at ϕ= 0.5 vol% and ϕ= 0.5 vol% at Re=10000, respectively. However, TiO2 nanofluids show a maximum decrease of 19% at ϕ=1.5 vol% and Re= 30000. As Re increases, the deviations between TiO2 and SiO2-TiO2 nanofluids diminish. Moreover, the Gene Expression Programming model can accurately evaluate Nu versus Re number and nanoparticle concentration

    The effect of nano encapsulated phase change materials and nanoparticles on turbulent heat transport : a conical diffuser scenario
    (Elsevier, 2022) Iachachene, Farida; Haddad, Zoubida; Arıcı, Müslüm; Abu-Nada, Eiyad; Sheremet, Mikhail A.
    The present work investigates turbulent flow of single and hybrid nanofluids filled in a conical diffuser. The heat transfer coefficients and pressure losses are analyzed at various Reynolds numbers and nanoparticle volume fractions. The diffuser is filled with Al2O3, nano encapsulated phase change material NEPCM, and NEPCM_Al2O3 nanofluids. The thermophysical parameters of all nanofluids were determined using a novel methodology based on the thermodynamic equilibrium data for binary liquid mixtures. A notable novelty in the current work is the introduction of an innovative method of hybrid nanofluids composed of nanoparticles with and without phase change material (PCM). When compared to the other nanofluids tested, the NEPCM nanofluid presented the lowest pressure loss and the greatest heat transfer improvement within the diffuser. The Nusselt number of NEPCM nanofluids is enhanced by 15%, while for NEPCM_Al2O3 and Al2O3 nanofluids is increased by 10% and 6%, respectively. Similarly, the pressure drop is greater as compared to the base fluid, where the pressure drop is increased by 1%, 3.5%, and 5% for NEPCM, Al2O3, and NEPCM_Al2O3 nanofluid, respectively
