Role of Nanofluids in Heat Exchanger

Abstract

The nanofluids are the new class of fluids, which can be used as heat transfer fluids in thermal systems. The thermophysical properties of the conventional fluids enhances by mixing nanoparticles in them. The thermal conductivity increase with the addition of nanoparticles, which enhances the convective heat transfer. This article focuses on the use of nanofluids in different types of heat exchangers used in industries.
