Abstract:The main effect factors of the heat transfer enhancement in nanofluids
are the flow characteristics. It plays quite an important role in deep
investigation on the mechanism of heat transfer augmentation. Only by
accurately describing the nanofluids flow characteristics, can it make
sense for further exploration of the heat transfer process of
nanofluids. This paper will make use of three different kinds of models
to conduct researches on nanofluids. The results showed that the
nanofluids can not be considered as one single-phase fluids and
therefore the interactions between phases can not be neglected. The
Brownian motion needs to be considered as well when the Reynolds number
is very small. The results also revealed that the Euler-Lagrange
multiphase model is the most precise and the single-phase model is the
least precise, while the accuracy of the Eulerian-Eulerian multiphase
model is in between.
