Recently, environmental consciousness has led to the quest for ways to minimise negative elements in machining operations that threaten operator health and the environment. Titanium alloys are hard to cut, thus cooling the cutting zone is essential to reduce tool wear. Variations in Al2O3 nanoparticle concentrations supplied to the MQL cutting fluid affect cutting wedge wear during Ti6Al4V alloy turning. A diameter of 15 nm nanoparticles were utilised at 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1 wt% mass concentrations. In the experiments, the flank face wear band width VBB and crater width KB were measured. Comparisons were also made using dry-cutting tools and the MQL approach without nanoparticles. X-ray microanalysis was used to quantify and qualitatively assess the chemical composition of chosen rake surface micro-areas. Studies showed that Al2O3 nanoparticle mass concentration affects tool wear when turning a hard-to-cut alloy. 0.5 and 0.75 wt% mass concentrations had the lowest flank and rake wear of the four mass concentrations. The SEM examination showed that 0.5 wt% mass concentration decreased adhesive wear the most.

The main aim of this paper is to improve the heat transfer in a square cavity with a body at the left wall filled with a Al2O3/water nanofluid for different geometries. Numerous simulation experiments are conducted. A relative temperature is maintained at the vertical and top horizontal walls while the bottom wall is warm. The finite volume approach is considered to resolve the equations governing the thermal transfer flow in the physical domain based on the SIMPLER algorithm. In this study, different values of the following parameters are considered: Rayleigh number (104 ≤ Ra ≤ 105) and solid volume fraction (0 ≤ φ ≤ 0.1) of nanoparticles (NPs). Parameters, such as the Rayleigh (Ra) and Bejan (Be) numbers, thermal conductivity, body’s dimensions, and NPs volume fraction, which directly affect the entropy generation and heat transfer rate, are studied in a particular way. The obtained results show that entropy generation goes ahead with the Ra increase and inverse to the solid volume fraction increase. One can notice that the heat transfer has a proportional relation with φ and Ra.

The multi criterion decision making (MCDM) method and experimental investigation on free convective heat transfer performance of oxide-based water nanofluids along a vertical cylinder are the two methods used to compare the performance in this paper. Al2O3, CuO, TiO2, SiO2, Fe3O4, and ZnO were the metal oxide nanoparticles used in the study to make water-based metal oxide nanofluids with volume fractions ranging from 0% to 1%. Two step method was used to create nanofluids. Thermo-physical properties like density, specific heat, viscosity, and thermal conductivity were measured after the various nanofluids were synthesized. Then, the performance of each nanofluid was evaluated based on various attributes using the weighted sum model (WSM) method, and the ranking of nanofluids was given. To begin, water served as the medium for free convection heat transfer experiments to validate the experimental setup. Free convection heat transfer experiments were carried out using metal oxide-based water nanofluids as mediums at volume fractions ranging from 0% to 1% for various heat inputs in the range of 30 W and 50 W. The heat transfer coefficient augments with percentage volume concentration up to 0.1 % for all types of nanofluids and then decreases until it reaches 0.6% volume fraction. Al2O3-water nanofluid performs better than other metal oxide nanofluids in both WSM and experimental methods.

Titanium and its alloys are widely utilized in the biomedical sector, they still exhibit poor tribological properties and low wear resistance when employed against even weaker substances. The poor hardness, instability, high coefficient of friction, low load-carrying capacity, and insufficient resistance to not only abrasive but also adhesive wear are further disadvantages of titanium alloys. The focus of this investigation is on the tribological performance of Ti-6Al-4 V alloy in contact with WC carbide abrasive balls when subjected to nanodoped cooling and lubrication conditions. Tribological experiments were executed on Ti-6Al-4 V flat samples using a ball-on-flat tribometer in dry hybrid graphene/boron nitride combination nanoparticles (MQL, nano-3), nanographene with MQL (nano-1), and boron nitride with MQL (nano-2) conditions. After that, the most significant tribological characteristics were investigated, including volume loss, friction coefficient, wear rate, and micrographic structures. The outcomes also demonstrated that the hybrid nanoparticle situation experienced the least amount of volume loss.

Titanium alloys belong to the group of difficult-to-cut materials, machining of which leads to a number of challenges including large thermal loads on the cutting inserts and difficulties in obtaining a high quality machined surface. Great cutting forces, in turn, result in increased energy consumption. Therefore, it becomes important to attempt to reduce the amount of power consumed during machining, which can be achieved, among other things, by reducing the value of the coefficient of friction in the cutting zone. This paper presents a study on the influence of the size as well as the Cu nanoparticle concentration added to cutting fluid in MQL method on the power grid parameters while turning of Ti6Al4V titanium alloy. In this research, nanoparticles of 22 nm and 65 nm at concentrations of 0.5 wt% and 0.75 wt% were used. Turning process was carried out with constant cutting parameters and variable aerosol formation parameters, i.e. mass flow rate of nanofluid and volumetric flow rate of air. Based on the study, the use of 22 nm nanoparticles at 0.5 wt% concentration is recommended to achieve the smallest monitored values of the power grid parameters. The statistical analysis revealed that, out of the aerosol formation parameters considered, both the air flow rate and nanofluid flow rate do not significantly affect the values of the analysed power network parameters. However, the most significant factor is the variable nanoparticle size.

Nanofluids have found widespread practical applications in heat transfer, including cooling oils for diverse uses like automobile radiators, solar and nuclear power systems, biomedical devices, ventilation, heating, air conditioning, refrigeration, engine cooling, and transformers. Extensive scientific studies have investigated the impact of exotic fluids when combined with traditional heat transfer fluids, revealing that this combination enhances heat transfer performance beyond that of conventional working fluids. Collectively, these studies demonstrate the impressive heat transfer abilities of nanofluids. To optimize the efficiency of flat plate solar collectors, a comprehensive approach integrating theory and experimentation is essential. The results of such research highlight that increasing both the mass flow rate and concentration of nanofluids can lead to significant efficiency improvements, with potential enhancements ranging from 20% to 85%.

Heat transfer study from the heated square cylinder at a different orientation angle to the stream of nanofluids has been investigated numerically. CuO-based nanofluids were used to elucidate the significant effect of parameters: Reynolds number (1–40), nanoparticle volume fraction (0.00–0.05), the diameter of the NPs (30–100 mn) and the orientation of square cylinder (0–90). The numerical results were expressed in terms of isotherm contours and average Nusselt number to explain the effect of relevant parameters. Over the range of conditions, the separation of the boundary layers of nanofluids increased with the size of the NPs as compared to pure water. NPs volume fraction and its size had a significant effect on heat transfer rate. The square cylinder of orientation angle (45) gained a more efficient heat transfer cylinder than other orientation angles. Finally, the correlations were developed for the average Nusselt number in terms of the relevant parameters for 45 orientation of the cylinder for new applications.

The mathematical model of heat generation and dissipation during thermal energy transmission employing nanoparticles in a Newtonian medium is investigated. Dimensionless boundary layer equations with correlations for titanium dioxide, copper oxide, and aluminium oxide are solved by the finite element method. Parameters are varied to analyze their impact on the flow fields. Various numerical experiments are performed consecutively to explore the phenomenon of thermal performance of the combination fluid. A remarkable enhancement in thermal performance is noticed when solid structures are dispersed in the working fluid. The Biot number determines the convective nature of the boundary. When the Biot number is increased, the fluid temperature decreases significantly. Among copper oxide, aluminium oxide, and titanium oxide nanoparticles, copper oxide nanoparticles are found to be the most effective thermal enhancers.

This work concentrates on the study of the two-dimensional hydromagnetic flow of nanofluids over an suddenly started nonlinear stretching sheet in the presence of radiation and dissipation. The Soret effect and heat generation are also taken into consideration. The transformed ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are solved numerically via the MATLAB RK4S approach bvp4c solver with the assistance of similarity variables. The effects of various parameters are explored and shown in graphs and tables. It is noted that the concentration increases as the Soret number increases within the boundary layer. An increase in velocity slip decreases the velocity and a reverse effect is observed for temperature. This model has significance in different areas such as polymer chemical and metallurgical industries, and other fields that use the latest technology and thermo-processed materials such as metallic and glass sheets.

In this experimental investigation, the critical heat flux (CHF) of aqua-based multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) nanofluids at three different volumetric concentrations 0.2%, 0.6%, and 0.8% were prepared, and the test results were compared with deionized water. Different characterization techniques, including X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared, were used to estimate the size, surface morphology, agglomeration size and chemical nature of MWCNT. The thermal conductivity and viscosity of the MWCNT at three different volumetric concentrations was measured at a different temperature, and results were compared with deionized water. Although, MWCNT-deionized water nanofluid showed superior performance in heat transfer coefficient as compared to the base fluid. However, the results proved that the critical heat flux is increased with an increase in concentrations of nanofluids.

Suspensions of nano-scale particles in liquids, dubbed nanofluids, are of great interest for heat transfer applications. Nanofluids potentially offer superior thermal conductivity to alternative, pure fluids and are of particular interest in applications where active cooling of power-dense systems is required. In this work, the thermophysical properties of carbon nanotube nanofluids (CNTNf) and those of graphene nanoplatelette nanofluids (GNPNf) as functions of particle volume fraction are deduced from published experiments. These properties are applied to a perturbative boundary layer model to examine how the velocity and temperature profiles (and correspondingly shear stress and surface heat transfer) vary with the nanoparticle concentration in the entrance region of microchannels. Findings of this modeling effort indicate that both shear stress and heat transfer in GNPNf increase with increasing particle concentration. The normalized increase in shear stress is approximately twice that for heat transfer as a function of the GNP particle concentration. Interestingly, CNTNf shows anti-enhancement heat transfer behaviour; an increasing concentration of CNT nanoparticles is associated with both an increase in shear stress and a decrease in the surface heat transfer rate.

The purpose of this paper is to consider a two dimensional free convective flow of a nanofluid due to the combined effects of thermal and mass diffusion in the presence of a chemical reaction of first order. The objective of the present investigation is to analyze the free convective flow in the presence of prescribed wall heat flux and mass flux condition. The governing equations of the linear momentum, energy equation and concentration are obtained in a dimensionless form by introducing a suitable group of similarity transformations. The transformed coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations are solved numerically by using appropriate boundary conditions for the various values of physical parameters. Computations are performed for a wide range of values of the various governing flow parameters of the velocity, temperature and species concentration profiles and results are presented graphically. Numerical results for the skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number are also presented and analyzed in detail. The obtained results are compared with previously published work and are found to be in excellent agreement. The results are a very useful source of information for researchers on the subject of a free convective flow of a nanofluid. This paper illustrates chemical reaction effects on free convective flow of a nanofluid from a vertical plate with uniform heat and mass fluxes.

In heat transportation applications, water is most commonly used fluid. The efficiency of equipment used in these applications depends on thermal characteristics of water used. The thermal characteristics of water could be upgraded by suspending high thermal conducting solid nanoparticles. In this paper an attempt has been made to know how the use of surfactants and functionalization of carbon nanotube walls can affect the thermal characteristics and stability of nanofluid. A thorough analysis of collected literature revealed that carbon nanotubes have much higher thermal conductivity than any other nanoparticles and hence improve the thermal properties of water when suspended in them. Further it is concluded that suspension of carbon nanotubes in water requires use of surfactant or functionalization of carbon nanotube walls with proper group. By setting optimum pH and better dispersion, better thermal conductivity is possible. Experimental studies in the literature survey reveal that chemical stabilization techniques and physical stabilization techniques together decide the stability of the nanofluid.

This research focuses on the effect of nanomaterials on the physical properties of a local Iraqi lubricant oil (20W-50), which is widely used in diesel engines. The concentrations of 0.001, 0.2 and 0.5 wt% of Al2O3 NPs and CNT are dispersed in the oil with the help of a suitable surfactant using a magnetic stirrer and a sonication process. The density, surface tension, dynamic viscosity, kinematic viscosity, flash point, fire point, pour point, thermal conductivity, thermal images, wear and the coefficient of friction of the oil with and without nanomaterials are tested. The results were shown that the higher concentrations of NPs, the better properties for the engine oil. The density for Al2O3 nanooil indicates a small change at 0.001 and 0.2 wt%, and a decrease at 0.5 wt% ratio. Also, the density of CNT oil shows a slight change at 0.001and then decreasing at 0.2 and 0.5 ratios. In addition, the surface tension of both nanooils are increased. The dynamic viscosity slightly change with an addition of the NPs especially at 20°C and 30°C. Also, there is a convergence in the viscosity values between base and nanooils at 40°C and 50°C. Also, the dynamic viscosity indicates shear thickening behavior at low shear rate, while in the high shear rate the viscosity attempts to be more stable. The kinematic viscosity increases with an increased concentration of the NPs at 40°C and 100°C for both nanooils. The flash and fire point are increasing for both nanooils and Al2O3 nanooil indicates a lower pour point than that of CNT oil. CNT oil indicates higher dissipating heat friction and thermal conductivity than that of Al2O3 nanooil. Thermal images are supported by thermal conductivity and flash point behavior, while the tribology tests are compatible with viscosity behavior. A significant reduction in the coefficient of friction and wear loss is produced for both nanooils.

In this article, we investigate the convective heat transfer of the two-dimensional unsteady squeezing flow past a Riga plate. To examine the heat transfer, Cattaneo-Christov heat flux model is used. Influence of entropy generation on heat transfer has been investigated numerically. With the help of suitable similarity transformation, the governing partial differential equations (PDEs) are converted into ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The obtained system of non-linear ordinary differential equations subject to the convective boundary conditions is solved by the shooting method using the computational software MATLAB. To strengthen the reliability of the results obtained by the shooting method, the MATLAB built-in function bvp4c has been used. The graphs show the effect of different physical parameters for velocity, temperature, concentration and tables are presented to observe the behaviour of skin friction and sherwood number under the influence of certain physical parameters. It is observed that for increasing values of thermal relaxation parameter, the temperature profile increases and an opposite behaviour is shown for the concentration profile. Moreover, with an increase in the Brinkman number, the entropy generation increases.

The paper presents the influences of nanofluids, which are used in hardening process, to dimension changes, hardness and microstructure of hardened construction of steel samples. An analysis was also carried out with the use of English methods of cooling abilities of nanofluids environments based on water, solid nanoparticles of Al2O3 and ammoniac water. The results of this experiment show, that only one of specific dimensions of cooled samples, in the distilled water, changed for about 9%, but when using nanofluids this change was smaller. The hardness of alloy materials got a few percent more when nanofluids were used in comparasion to using the distilled water. The gained results allow to conclude the positive influence of nanofluids on parameters of the hardened materials.
