CFD Investigation of Gravitational Sedimentation Effect on Heat Transfer of a Nano-Ferrofluid

In the present attempt, flow behavior and thermal convection of one type of nanofluids in a disc geometry was investigated using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Influence of gravity induced sedimentation also has been studied. The commercial software, Fluent 6.2, has been employed to solve the g...
