Numerical study of instability of nanofluids: the coagulation effect and sedimentation effect

<p>Abstract</p> <p>This study is a numerical study on the coagulation as well as the sedimentation effect of nanofluids using the Brownian dynamics method. Three cases are simulated, focusing on the effects of the sizes, volume fraction, and &#950; potentials of nano-particles...
