Experimental and theoretical investigation of heat transfer characteristics of cylindrical heat pipe using Al2O3–SiO2/W-EG hybrid nanofluids by RSM modeling approach

Abstract Nanofluids are emerging two-phase thermal fluids that play a vital part in heat exchangers owing to its heat transfer features. Ceramic nanoparticles aluminium oxide (Al2O3) and silicon dioxide (SiO2) were produced by the sol-gel technique. Characterizations have been done through powder X-...
