Numerical Study of Nanofluid Irreversibilities in a Heat Exchanger Used with an Aqueous Medium
Heat exchangers play an important role in different industrial processes; therefore, it is important to characterize these devices to improve their efficiency by guaranteeing the efficient use of energy. In this study, we carry out a numerical analysis of flow dynamics, heat transfer, and entropy ge...
