Comparative Analysis of Water and Nano Fluid in STHE Using Computational Fluid Dynamic
Journal Title: International Journal of Mechanical and Production Engineering Research and Development (IJMPERD ) - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 4
Abstract
In this current work, study has been conducted on the shell and tube heat exchanger. CFD was used to carry out the analysis of this heat exchanger. Fluent software was used to project the pressure distribution. The effectiveness of base fluid and nano fluid was simulated and compared. The base fluid used was water and nano fluid used for the analysis was Al2O3. Rate of heat transfer was inspected. It was established from the results that Al2O3 was more effective as compared to base fluid. The role of eddy viscosity had been also discussed.
