Performance analysis of a wavy fin-and-tube automobile radiator operating on ethylene glycol and water based ternary nanofluids by Ferdinard Dika, Mustafa Dagbasi, Michael Adedeji, Humphrey Adun

“…The results showed that, for most of the radiator operating scenarios and base fluid mixture configurations tested, TNF 1 offers the best performance. Additionally, the change in volume fraction for the EG/W (20:80) base fluid only slightly affects the heat transfer rate and exergy efficiency for TNF 1. …”
