Heat transfer and friction factor of composite TiO2-SiO2 nanofluids in water-ethylene glycol (60:40) mixture

The need for high performance of heat transfer has been evaluated by finding different ways to enhance heat transfer rate in fluid. One of the methods is the combination of two or more nanoparticles and it is known as hybrid/composite nanofluids which can give better performance of heat transfer. Th...
