Numerical Analysis of Experimental Turbulent Forced Convection Heat Transfer for Nanofluid Flow in a Tube

A numerical model for determining the characteristics of flow and heat has been presented by modifying the eddy diffusivity equation of Sarma et al. The experimental data of thermo-physical properties determined using spherical particles in a wide range of concentration, particle size, materials an...
