Heat transfer effects on carbon nanotubes along a moving flat plate subjected to uniform heat flux

In the present paper, a theoretical analysis is made to investigate fluid flow and heat energy transformation features of single and multi-walled water functionalized carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with uniform heat inconstancy boundary conditions onward a flat plate. The liquid motion and momentum transfer of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been analyzed using a homogeneous flow model. Both single-wall CNTs (SWCNTs) and multi-wall CNTs (MWCNTs) used base fluids, namely, water. The thermophysical characteristics of CNTs regarding the solid volume fraction of CNTs are studied by applying empirical correlations. Similarity transformations have been used to the governing partial differential equations turning them into ordinary differential equations. The outcome of similarity transformations which are nonlinear ordinary differential equations subjected to reconstructed boundary conditions, are subsequently solved numerically using bvp4c. The effects of the governing parameters on the dimensionless velocity, temperature, and skin friction are investigated numerically and graphically. An increase in the volume fraction and the velocity ratio parameter increase the flow, the velocity, and the temperature profile. Regardless of any physical parameter, SWCNTs give better heat transfer than MWCNTs.

This work presents the influence of the sonication time on the efficiency of the metallic/semiconducting (M/S) fractionation of diazonium salt functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) via free solution electrophoresis (FSE) method. The SWCNTs synthesized via laser ablation were purified from amorphous carbon and catalyst particles through high vacuum annealing and subsequent refluxing processes in aqua regia solutions, respectively. The purified material was divided into two batches. The SWCNTs samples were dispersed in 1% SDS solution in ultrasound bath for 2 and 12 hours. Both dispersed SWCNTs samples were functionalized with p-aminobenzoic acid diazonium salt and fractionated via free solution electrophoresis method. Afterwards, the fractionated samples were recovered, purified from surfactant/functionalities by annealing and investigated via UV-Vis-NIR optical absorption spectroscopy (OAS). The efficiency of the fractionation process was estimated through the comparison of the van Hove singularities (vHS) presented in the obtained fractions to the starting SWCNTs.
