Numerical Investigation on Heat Transfer and Pressure Drop in Silver/Water Nanofluids Flowing Through Tubes with Variable Expansion–Contraction Ratios

Numerical Investigation on Heat Transfer and Pressure Drop in Silver/Water Nanofluids Flowing Through Tubes with Variable Expansion–Contraction Ratios

This study presents a numerical investigation on the heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics of silver/water nanofluids (0.1–0.5 vol.%) flowing in tubes with four distinct expansion–contraction ratios (ECR = 1.25, 1.50, 1.75, and 2). Additionally, the impact of the distance between expansion...
