Characterization of Chemical Reaction on Heat Transfer Through the Nano Fluid

Publication date: 2015 Source:Procedia Materials Science, Volume 10 Author(s): G.V.P.N. Srikanth, G. Srinivas, B. Suresh Babu The chemical reaction of metal particle with the solvent is natural and decomposition of the metal particle is a natural phenomenon. But, this decomposition affects the viscosity and the fluid flow. The inclusion of chemical reaction rate parameter in the expression of viscosity given by Graham A.L (Applied Science Research, 37(3), pp.275-286(1981)) address the behavior of the viscosity of the Nano fluid in its flow and heat transfer. The heat transfer is more for large volume fraction of the solid. The heat transfer is less due to the decomposition of metal particle
