Heat transfer enhancement in a triangular duct using compound nanofluids and turbulators

Numerical and experimental investigation is carried out to study the laminar heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics in an equilateral triangular duct using combined vortex generator and nanofluids. Two different types of nanoparticles "namely Al2O3 and SiO2" suspended in distilled wa...
