A Review on Effect of Nano Fluid in Solar Collector
Abstract: AbstractIn this developing world, energy demand is growing day by day. But due to the scarcity and continuous depletion of conventional fuels, Renewable energy is an alternative source. Among all renewable energies, we have solar energy in abundance and solar collectors are commonly used to produce the energy. The fluids suffer from poor thermal and heat absorption properties which are conventional are used in solar collectors as the heat transfer …

Effect MFD Viscosity on Bénard–Marangoni Ferroconvection in a Rotating Ferrofluid Layer with Convective Surface Boundary Condition
Abstract: AbstractThe combined effect of Coriolis force due to rotation and magnetic field dependent (MFD) viscosity on the onset of Bénard–Marangoni convection in a horizontal layer of ferrofluid is investigated theoretically. The lower boundary is taken to be rigid–isothermal, while the upper free boundary open to the atmosphere is flat and subject to a convective surface boundary condition. The Galerkin technique is employed to extract the critical stability parameters numerically. It …
