Experimental and numerical study of thermo-hydraulic performance of circumferentially ribbed tube with Al2O3 nanofluid

The mechanisms of heat transfer enhancement are used in many industrial applications. Several techniques have been promoted to enhance heat transfer rate and to decrease the size and cost of equipment especially the heat exchangers. In this paper, heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop for Al2O...
