Nanofluids: Preparation, Applications and Simulation Methods

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 , along with their current and potential applications. Different approaches for numerical, semi-analytical, and analytical simulations are also discussed, including the Lattice Boltzmann method, 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.
