关于此电子书

Nanofluids are a new class of heat transfer fluids engineered by dispersing and stably suspending nanoparticles in traditional heat transfer fluids. Recently they have obtained global attention from the scientific community owing to their unique properties and significant applications in different engineering fields. Nanofluids: Preparation, Applications and Simulation Methods provides a comprehensive review of recent advances in this important research field. Different approaches for preparing some remarkable families of nanofluids such as aluminum oxide-based nanofluids, CuO/Cu-based nanofluids, carbon nanotubes/graphene-based nanofluids, ZnO-based nanofluids, Fe3O4-based nanofluids, and SiO2-based nanofluids are discussed in detail as well as their current and potential applications. Different approaches for numerical, semi-analytical and analytical simulations are also discussed including molecular dynamics, the Lattice Boltzmann method, and spectral methods, as well as advanced analytical techniques such as the Differential Transform Method, the Homotopy Analysis Method, and Optimal Homotopy Analysis. The book will be a valuable reference resource for academic and industrial researchers, materials scientists and engineers, nanotechnologists, and chemists working in the development of nanomaterials and nanofluids for heat transfer in energy and engineering applications. - Covers the synthesis of nanostructures, preparation of nanofluids, different applications and proposed models for fluid mechanics and heat transfer - Presents recent advances on preparation methods, including green chemistry-based methods for preparation of nanomaterials and nanofluids - Includes novel model-based approaches such as molecular dynamics and Lattice Boltzmann methods - Delves into applications in renewable energy technologies and thermal management - Contains a Semi-analytical approach for solving Time-Fractional Navier-Stokes Equation
