Abstract

A numerical model for flow and heat transfer of hybrid nanofluids in porous curved channel is presented. The interactions of various transport processes, i.e. mass, momentum and energy are considered in a fully coupled manner. In particular, transport of nanoparticles driven by various mechanisms leading to non-uniform nanoparticle distribution is emphasized in the model. With the model validated, it is employed to investigate flow and heat transfer of Al2O3-Cuwater hybrid nanofluid. The results showed that heat transfer increases with higher total nanoparticle volume fraction, higher Reynolds number and larger porosity.
