Boost heat transfer efficiency through thermal radiation and electrical conductivity in nanofluids.

Thermal radiation and electrical conductivity in nanofluids are crucial for their heat transfer characteristics, especially in applications with elevated temperatures or significant radiative heat transfer. The suspension of nanoparticles in suspension contributes to the fluid's electrical conductivity, which is essential for efficient heat dissipation in electronic cooling systems. Understanding the behavior of electroconductive nanofluids is particularly important in electronic cooling applications, where effective heat dissipation is crucial to prevent overheating. A study using a similarity parameter transformed a system of coupled PDEs into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations, revealing significant changes in key physical characteristics, such as temperature distribution, cubic concentration field, and velocity field. The study also examined the effects of parameters like Brownian motion, Rayleigh number, Peclet number, thermophoresis parameter, and buoyancy ratio parameter. The research provides valuable insights into the complex dynamics of magnetized non‐Newtonian nanofluids and offers practical implications for applications like microbial fuel cells and heat transmission equipment.
