Abstract

Nanotechnology is concerned with the materials and systems whose structures and components exhibit novel and significantly improved physical, chemical, and biological properties, phenomena, and processes due to their nano scale size. In this demonstrates the enhancement of heat transfer using nano fluids in a heat exchanger utilizing commercially available equipment. Experiments will be conducted using both conventional fluid and nano fluid and the overall heat transfer coefficient is compared.

Keywords
