In this paper magnetohydrodynamic free convection flow of CuO–water nanofluid in a square enclosure with a rectangular heated body is investigated numerically using Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) scheme. The effective thermal conductivity and viscosity of nanofluid are calculated by KKL...

In this study, free convection heat transfer in a concentric annulus between a cold square and heated elliptic cylinders in presence of magnetic field is investigated. The square and elliptic cylinders are maintained at uniform temperatures and it is assumed that the walls are insulating...

The low thermal properties of liquids have led to investigations into additives of small size (less than 100nm solid particles) to enhance their heat transfer properties and hydrodynamic flow. To summarise the experimental and numerical studies, this paper reviews these computational simulations...

In recent years, the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) has become an alternative and attractive approach to simulate numerous fluid flow problems. A colloidal mixture of nano-sized particles in a base liquid called nanofluid, which is the new generation of heat transfer fluid for various heat...
