@misc{Moussa_Zerrouki_Analysis, author={Moussa, Zerrouki and Bouaziz, Mohamed Najib}, howpublished={online}, publisher={Zielona Góra: Uniwersytet Zielonogórski}, language={eng}, abstract={This paper presents a detailed study of the interaction between conduction through a vertical fin and conjugate mixed convection of a nanofluid flowing in a porous medium. The fin model and the primitive partial differential equations governing the nanofluid with boundary conditions are transformed into dimensionless forms. For the nanofluid, fin, and fin-nanofluid interface equations, a second-level nonsimilarity transformation is obtained and solved by the bvp4c solver. A validation of the computational code is ensured by comparing the results to a conventional fluid.}, abstract={It was found that the fin temperature is strongly controllable by the geometrical parameters and thermal conductivity of the fin, while Brownian motion and thermophoresis have a moderate effect on it. In addition, low values of Nr and [Omega] favor the fin efficiency. An analysis on very different values of the Pr number reveals that the use of nanofluids with a suitable base fluid allows high fin dissipations. A more advantageous thermal design can be achieved by combining a nanofluid in a porous medium with a fin in specific applications. These main results provide valuable information on the necessary optimization of the fin efficiency.}, title={Analysis of Conjugate Mixed Convection Flow of a Nanofluid Over a Vertical Fin in Porous Media}, type={artykuł}, keywords={fin, porous media, nanofluid, mixed convection, conjugate problem}, }
