An Updated Assessment on Performance and Application of Mixed Nanofluids in Heat Transfer Units

Abstract

The mixing of nano-particles in regular base solutions receiving additional consideration of investigators and examiners because of its distinctive thermal output in diverse area of sciences and engineering. Nano-fluid output was good and resulted satisfactory in heat convey phenomenon which fascinated scientists to mix dissimilar blends of nano-particles which titled as “hybrid nano-fluid”. From the pilot explorations it is established that the rate of heat transport is superior for hybrid nano-fluid as contrast to single nano-fluid. Depending on the above inspiration the current review is paying attention. 

Bearing in mind the problems of power cutback and surroundings security, the output of refrigeration units needs to be developed. In latest days, nanofluids have fascinated really notice from the investigators because of their exceptional thermal properties. In this study, available data on the preparation and characterization of nanofluids have been conferred at initial. Besides, the key thermo-physical properties of nanofluids, such as thermal conductivity, viscosity, specific heat and density have been recapitulated. It is summarized that mixed nanofluids as refrigerant, lubricant or secondary fluid have extensive possible uses in refrigeration units.
