Research on convective heat transfer characteristics of Fe3O4 magnetic nanofluids under vertical magnetic field (original) (raw)

This paper focuses on the convective heat transfer characteristics of Fe3O4-water magnetic nanofluids under laminar and turbulent conditions. After verifying the accuracy of the experimental apparatus, the effects of magnetic field strength, concentration, Reynolds number and temperature on the convective heat transfer coefficient have been studied. The convective heat transfer characteristics of nanofluids under laminar and turbulent flow conditions were studied in depth, and the influence of each factor on the heat transfer coefficient was analyzed by orthogonal experimental design method. Under the laminar flow conditions, the convective heat transfer of magnetic nanofluids performed best when the Reynolds number was 2000, the magnetic field strength was 600, the temperature was 30?C, and the concentration was 2%. The convective heat transfer coefficient, h, increased by 3.96% than the distilled water in the same conditions. In turbulent state, the convective heat transfer of mag...
