1. Introduction

The latest trends of technological development in mechanical and thermal systems refer to the
necessity of increasing the thermal efficiency in these systems. Thus, many researchers have studied
the heat transfer enhancement inactive, passive, or hybrid methods. The first found of
nanotechnology in Mesopotamia, and artists they used that for a glittering effect on the surface of
the pots [1]. Medieval artisans used a suspension of gold nanoparticles for their windows to make
deep red colours without knowing their secrets. In the 15th century in Italy, ceramicists used metallic
nanoparticles dispersed in a liquid to make shininess pottery [2]. The term "nanofluid" was stated by
Sus [3]; he refers to a liquid containing a dispersion of submicronic solid particles (nanoparticles) with

a particle size of 1–50 nm. Nanofluid is a suspension of nanometer-sized particles or fibers in a liquid
called (base fluid). These additional particles will effect on physical properties of the base fluid, e.g.,
density, viscosity, specific heat, and thermal conductivity. Lately, many researchers studied the
changing of base fluid from pure Water to a liquid more efficiently by adding a liquid, like ethylene
glycol, to create a high thermal conductivity fluid. Many review papers agreed that the addition of
nanoparticles and the changing of base fluid gave the systems high performance, but those review
papers didn't make a comparative analysis between the experimental and simulation studies in this
field or didn't mention the characteristics that effect of the heat transfer enhancement of these
thermal applications [4-8] Many studies determined the thermal conductivity of different
nanoparticles in various fluids with volume concentrations between (0.1-4%) they found an
enhancement in the system of 4.9-50% compared to its base fluid. Convection I the study of heat
transport processes effected by the flow of fluids [9]. Convection has three types; natural convection
is a phenomenon in which the fluid motion is driven by buoyancy forces due to the variation in density
by temperature difference [10]. Force convection means that an external force device, such as a
pump, is used to promote the fluid motion for the process. Mixed convection is a unique case of the
convective transportation phenomenon; it's a mixing of natural and forced convection, which occurs
in heat exchangers, solar panel systems, and most electronic cooling systems.
Nanofluid is liquid content of metallic (Fe2O3, Au, Ag Al2O3), non-metallic (silica, ceramic, glass),
organic (proteins, sugars), inorganic (calcium phosphates), friendly environmental (roots, stems,
leaves, bulbs) or hybrid nanoparticles (MgFe2O4, Al2O3+Cu) with a 0.1-100nm size suspended in a
base fluid, such as water, ethylene glycol, glycerine, acetone, etc. [11-13]. In recent years, it has been
noticed that the addition of nanosized particles to the base fluid can improve its thermal conductivity.
This research presents the latest enhancement in each character that can change the thermal
conductivity and the heat transfer quantity; this research aims to aggregate the latest research on
the nanofluid technology to simplify to the researchers about the latest trends and the
recommendations for new researchers based on authors' knowledge. Many researchers applied this
magnificent fluid in many heat exchanger applications that will enhance the heat transfer coefficient,
which increases the heat exchanger efficiency [14]. Several review papers have been published
concerning the synthesis and applications of the usage of nanofluids [15]. The Nanofluid is regarded
as a novel class technique to optimize the heat transfer efficiency of the heat exchangers owing to
the high dispensability of the nanoparticles within the base fluid and the high stability of the
suspension. Figure 1 shows the Nusselt number increasing for different nanofluids. Bazdar et al., [16]
studied the effects of changing the wavelength of the sinusoidal microchannel and CuO nanofluid on
flow and heat transfer properties. The flow was simulated at Reynolds numbers range of 3000-7500
with volume fractions of 0, 1.5, and 3%. Figure 1 presented the Nu result of this study. Table 1 shows
the heat transfer enhancement or thermal conductivity of many studies in the nanofluid area.
Bisheh et al., [17] investigated the Impact of hybrid nanofluids (Ag-TiO2/Water) at 1.5-3-6%
concentration with10000-18000 Re on improving the performance of a heat exchanger with
turbulent induction elements and concluded that the heat transfer coefficient had increased by 52%
at 6% of Ag-TiO2/ Water. Elfaghi et al., [18] studied the Forced Convection Heat Transfer
Enhancement in Pipes numerically Using Al2O3/Water Nanofluid with (0.5-1-2% of concentration) in
the Reynolds number range from 6000 to 12000. The Nusselt number results are shown in Figure 1.
Hybrid DWCNT-TiO2 /water nanofluid has been investigated by Zheng et al., [19] on the influence of
the shape of the vortex generator on fluid flow and turbulent heat transfer in a channel. The results
show that the heat transfer gains higher performance with the usage of the hybrid nanofluid.

Initial research and development technology demonstrated the potential of the heat transfer
nanofluid for applications in industrial sections and research institutes all over the world to keep the
effort in research and development in this field. Lately, that effort has increased and taken much
attention from researchers [47].
In 2010, the nanofluid-related publications were 2720, And that number can be seen increasing
each year, which shows the importance of this field. Its success led to being applied in several
applications and systems. In 2019, there were more than 14600 Publications published and indexed
in the Google Scholar search engine. Figure 2 shows the number of publications in the Google Scholar
search engine from 2010-2022. The nanofluid research has increased worldwide because nanofluid
increases the performance of the application that reduces energy consumption which leads to
reduced operational costs. Hence can maintain the whole system and increase its lifespan.

2. Preparation Methods for Nanofluids

Nanofluids contain two parts Nanosized particles and base fluid. To maintain the thermal
properties of the Nanofluid should reach a high stability suspension of nanoparticles in the base fluid;
some fluids require special treatment to reach that stability without changing their chemical
properties. There are two main techniques for the preparation of nanofluids: the single-step method
(SSM) and the two-step method (TSM) [48-51].

2.1 Single-Step Method (SSM)

The single-step method concurrently produces and disperses the nanoparticles into the base
fluid; this method can give stability to metallic nanofluids [52]. The aggregation can be reduced with
the direct evaporation condensation method. In this stage of preparation, the condensation forms of
nanoparticles through directly contacted between the vapor and base fluid; the continuous
circulation of base fluid can reduce the agglomeration of the nanoparticles [53,54] This technique is
preferable because it prevents oxidation of the particles; this method is suitable for research
purposes, can produce small quantities, also can produce ultra-thin coated nano layers (2-10nm)
which give more stability in the liquid.

2.2 Two-Step Method (TSM)

The two-step method is the most common and economical method for nanofluids preparation,
especially for large-scale production, that can be used in nanotubes, Nanofibers, or nanomaterials
such as metallic, non-metallic, and hybrid Nanosized particles [55]. The nanoparticles are in a powder
form by physical or chemical methods of preparation, then that nano powder is suspended in a base
fluid like water, ethylene glycol, engine oil, etc., in successive processing steps using ultrasonication
method or surfactants to reach higher stability and can keep its thermal properties longer, this
technique is suitable for producing large quantities, this method required higher concentrations with
the usage of oxide nanoparticles compared with the SSM [56-58]

3. Applications of Nanofluids

Nanofluids can be used to optimize heat transfer and energy efficiency in various applications.
Industrial systems and devices that need high thermal efficiencies like micro-manufacturing,
chemical sectors, metallurgical, heating, and air-conditioning to reduce and distribute the heat from
these systems or devices to the air to prevent overheat and failures in the systems [59]. Tsai et al.,
[60] investigated experimentally for an electrical application the thermal resistance of heat pipes
using gold nanoparticles in water liquid, they found a significant reduction in the temperature by 40%
and 37%.
Many industrial researchers studied the addition of nanoparticles in engine oils and coolants, and
they found a magnificent enhancement in efficiency and sustainability; after that, they experienced
that technique in gear oils, lubricants, and transmission fluids in vehicles [61-63]. Yu et al., [64] and
Paramane et al., [65] determined the improvement of adding nanoparticles to the power
transformers cooling system oil [66] They studied the heat transfer enhancement in a flat plate solar
collector using different nanofluids. Nanotechnology has enhanced the nuclear system cooling to
face the high heat flux that is convicted from the nuclear core. Recently nanotechnology has taken
part in many devices like Central Processing Unit (CPU) coolers in the computer, especially the
supercomputers CPU and the same value with the microprocessors [67-69]. Studied the heat transfer
of a microchannel heat sink in forced convection with a supercomputer circuit board. This technology
has been involved in many areas like solar collectors, space applications, radars, heavy military
vehicles, chemicals, oil, gas, food industry, drinking products, paper, printing process, textiles, and
biomedical applications [70-73]. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) applied
this magnificent technology in various applications and systems, and they announced they gain many
benefits from that technique starting from reducing the vehicle mass in their missions’ vehicles
outside the planet and to improve the functionality and durability furthermore, to enhance power
generation, storage and propulsion for rovers and EVA suits [74]. Nanotechnology played an
important role in various applications, especially the huge systems like nuclear reactors in their
cooling [75,76]. Recently modern military radars applied nanotechnology in the cooling system of the
radar, and found that the efficiency of the waste heat recovery heat exchanger increased for
nanofluids, that huge among of heat can be calcified as pollution, therefore, many researchers and
environmental activists trying to reduce and minimize thermal pollution and recover the energy
waste [77-79].

4. The Heat Transfer in Nanofluids

The heat transfer in heat exchanger channels represents energy transportation along the channel.
In general, there are three types of flows in heat exchanger channels: laminar, transition, and
turbulent [38,79]. These flows Reynold's number can be calculated by:

𝜌 𝑉𝑎𝑣𝑔 𝐷
𝑅𝑒 = (1)
𝜇

4.1 Laminar Flow

When the fluid particles flow in smooth paths in layers with an expected path and no mixing, the
Reynolds number < 2300. Zhang et al., [80] and Li et al., [81] studied the heat transfer evaluation of
a micro heat exchanger cooling with spherical carbon nanoparticles suspended in acetone as a base
fluid in Reynolds number range 256-1376, the thermal performance index results that increase with

Turbulent flow is a type of fluid flow in which the fluid undergoes irregular fluctuations and
mixing, with the Reynolds number Re>4000. Hussein et al., [92] Studied numerically on turbulent
forced convective heat transfer using nanofluids TiO2 with Water as a base fluid in a range of (10000-

5. The Characteristics that Effect on Nanofluids Heat Transfer

Several parametric effects on the nanofluids' heat transfer have been studied in this review,
particle material, volume concentration, particle size, particle shape, fluid temperature, acidity,
magnetic field and electrical pulsing. Those characteristics can enhance the nanofluid heat transfer
enhancement ratio up to 3.00 compared to its base fluid [103,104].

5.1 Effect of Particle Material

The effect of particle material on the heat transfer enhancement is shown in Figure 5 in different
nanoparticles (Al2O3, TiO2, ZnO, SiO2) with water as the base fluid. From that figure can be analysed
that the addition of ZnO nanofluid to the horizontal flat tube radiator conditions got the highest
increase in heat transfer enhancement among other nanofluids, and SiO2 gets the lowest value due
to its low thermal conductivity [105]. Table 4 present the thermal properties for some nanoparticle
materials [106-112].

Khan and Ahmed [105] analysed numerically the performance of four different nanoparticles
(Al2O3, TiO2, ZnO, SiO2) suspended in water in a horizontal flat tube radiator. The result shows that
the ZnO nanofluid enhanced the radiator by up to 19.35% of its thermal properties compared to
distilled Water. Figure 6 presents the increase in heat transfer performance of the nanofluids in
different volume concentrations.
Bubbico et al., [113] studied experimentally the heat transfer efficiency of TiO 2, ZrO2, SiC, and
Al2O3 suspended in water, tasted that in a heated and instrumented pipe with 4mm hydraulic
diameter and 200mm length, Al2O3 showed higher heat transfer coefficients than other nanofluids
and water.
Pendyala et al., [95] analysed numerically the heat transfer performance of a three-dimensional
(3D) car radiator consuming CuO, Al2O3, and SiO2 in ethylene glycol- water mix fluid (60:40) in various
volume concentrations 1%-5%, Al2O3 nanofluid resulted in high heat transfer coefficient compared
to other nanofluids and base fluid up to 90%.

As noticed from the results above, each material has its specific thermal properties that are
different from one material to another; not all materials have been studied either experimentally or
in simulation; we recommend that future studies focus on uncommon nanoparticle materials or try
to combine suitable hybrid nanoparticles.

5.2 Effect of Particle Volume Concentration

The effect of particle volume concentration is shown in Figure 7 for different nanofluids with
different volume concentrations in heat transfer efficiency; the nanoparticles can increase the heat
transfer with the increase in nanoparticles volume concentrations; several works in the literature
review studied its work with different volume concentrations. Generally, the Nanofluid can increase
the heat transfer coefficient with the increase of the nanoparticles volume concentrations [114].
Manay et al., [115] studied the thermophysical properties of nano ferrofluids in water
experimentally as a base fluid, MnFe2O4 and ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles have been dispersed in pure
water in different volume fractions (0.25,0.5, 1%) to study the gradient of thermal conductivity
enhancement effectively.
Khan and Ahmed [105] studied numerically in automobile radiators the thermal properties and
performance analyses of (Al2O3, TiO2, ZnO, and SiO2) in four different volume concentrations (0.5, 1,
1.5, 2%).
Kaska et al., [99] studied hybrid nanoparticles in water as a base fluid by mixing AlN with Al2O3 at
four-volume fractions (1, 2, 3, 4%) to enhance the heat transfer significantly; results showed the best
enhancement in heat transfer at 3% of volume concentration 50% compared to pure water.
In this research, most of the researchers agreed that the heat transfer enhancement increase
with the increase in the volume concentration; the results above show there are limits to that
increase of heat transfer enhancement. Therefore, we recommend in future studies increasing the
percentage range of the volume concentration to reach the maximum limit of heat transfer
enhancement with volume concentration, especially for the hybrid nanofluids.

5.3 Effect of Particle Size

The effect of particle size on thermal conductivity enhancement has been studied by a few
researchers; they agreed that the particle size could enhance the Nanofluid; the bigger size, the
highest the thermal conductivity. The nanoparticle size is measured as (nm), and the nanosized is
differently measured from one shape to another; the usual size particle for a spherical shape is
around (2-80nm), and for a cylindrical shape, around (600nm) [116]. The nanoparticle commercially
is found as nano powder. Therefore, that can be sized and measured by using a TEM micrograph
[117].

Pahlevaninejad et al., [119] calculated the average Nusselt's number in Al2O3 numerically with
water as base fluid with three different nanoparticles diameters (25, 45, 100 nm), the results of how
that the 100nm got the highest Nuavg.
Yang et al., [120] studied the SiC nanofluid with ethylene glycol and Water as a base fluid in a
sinusoidal heat exchanger channel in four different particles size (16, 28, 66, 90nm) with water and
with EG/H2O, from Figure 8, can agree with Pahlevaninejad et al., [119] that the thermal conductivity
enhancement increase with the increase of the nanoparticle size.
Salman [121] investigated the effect of nanoparticles size in SiO2 with water as a base fluid in a
range 30-60nm in different Reynolds numbers numerically, the results show an increase in the
Nusselt number with the increase in the Reynolds number and an increase in the Nusselt number
with the decrease of nanoparticle size, the heat transfer results reveal that the SiO 2 with 30nm got
the highest value of the enhancement Figure 9.

nanoparticles size

Few studies have been recorded on the effect of nanoparticles size on thermal conductivity; from
the results above, we can agree with the researchers that the increase in the particle size leads to an
increase the thermal conductivity.

5.4 Effect of Particle Shape

Many researchers studied the effect of different particle shapes (spherical, cylindrical, platelet,
Brick, blades, rods, etc.) on the thermal conductivity of the nanofluids [122]. Murshed et al., [123]
studied the thermal conductivity enhancement for two different TiO 2 nanoparticles shapes (15nm
sphere, 10*40 nm rod) suspended in water with volume concentration range (0.5-5%), rod
nanoparticle shape got the highest enhancement ratio up to 1.33 compared with pure water.
Bhattad and Sarkar [124] studied the effect of nanoparticles shape on the thermohydraulic
performance of plate evaporator experimentally using different hybrid nanofluids (Alumina + Cu, CuO
+ Cu, Titania+ Cu, Silica + Cu); the researcher studied different types of nanoparticles shapes (brick,
cylindrical, platelet, spherical), the thermal performance factor show that the brick type got the
highest value then spherical and cylindrical lastly the platelet type as shown in Figure 10.
Amin et al., [125] investigated the effect of nanoparticles shape on an Al2O3 with water and
ethylene glycol as base fluid nanofluid in a based flat plate solar collector application efficiency
numerically; in this research, different types of nanoparticles shapes have been studied (blades,
platelets, cylinders, bricks, spherical) with different nanoparticle concentration (1-5%), the blades
type got the highest thermal conductivity enhancement among other shapes, followed by platelets,
cylinders, bricks, and spherical shape, Figure 11 presents the thermal conductivity enhancement of
alumina nanofluids for different particle shapes.
Xie et al., [126] studied the effect of SiC nanoparticle's cylindrical and spherical shape suspended
in Water as base fluid on nanofluid thermal conductivity; the results show the cylindrical shape
enhanced the thermal conductivity of the Nanofluid up to 37.5%, that enhancement resulted because

the cylindrical shape got 600nm size compared to the spherical 26nm, and we agreed obviously that
the particle size effect on the nanofluid thermal conductivity increasing with the increase in the
particle size.

particle shapes

Limited studies experimentally or numerically have investigated the effect of nanoparticles


shape; there is a leak in this area of study because there is no agreement between the studies on the
arrangement of the best particle shape on thermal conductivity, and the area of the shape plays a
role in that enhancement as we explained previously. Therefore, we agree that there is a need to
increase the experimental studies on this effect, and that will be a novel study.

5.5 Effect of Fluid Temperature

The thermal conductivity of the nanoparticles is more affected by temperature-sensitive than its
base fluid. All the studies in the literature review agreed that the value of the heat transfer increase
with the increase in the fluid temperature in its 'limits'. Figure 12 presents the heat transfer
enhancement for SiO2- Water nanofluid in different fluid temperatures experimentally and
numerically.
Hussein et al., [87] studied experimentally and numerically the heat transfer enhancement for
three different fluid temperatures (60, 70, 80 C) in automotive cooling system application, SiO 2
nanoparticles were suspended in pure Water in a volume concentration range (1-2.5%), observed
from the results the heat transfer enhancement increases with the increase of fluid temperature
Figure 12.
Gupta et al., [117] analysed the heat transfer in a circular tube using ZnFe2O4 at different
concentrations (0.02-0.5%) with different temperatures (30-80C). The researchers studied the effect
of the nanofluid temperature on the thermal conductivity, the thermal conductivity at (30C was 0.625
W/m.K), and at (80C was 0.75 W/m.K); hence, the thermal conductivity increased with the increase
of the nanofluid temperature.

Fig. 12. Heat transfer enhancement for SiO2- water nanofluid in


different fluid temperatures experimentally and numerically

From the studies above, all the researchers agreed that the heat transfer increase with the
increase of fluid temperature; that increase is different from one material to another, so we
encourage future studies to study experimentally or simulate the effect and enhancement of
different nanofluids and compare the differences from fluid to another.

5.6 Effect of Acidity

Few researchers have studied the effect of fluid acidity on the nanofluid thermal conductivity Lee
et al., [127] studied the acidity effect on CuO-Water nanofluid (0.03-0.3%) of volume concentration

15
Journal of Advanced Research in Fluid Mechanics and Thermal Sciences
Volume 107, Issue 2 (2023) 1-26

and (25nm) of particle size and (3,6 pH), the results present that the (3pH) Nanofluid got 1.12 thermal
conductivity enhancement ratio compared to its base fluid and the (6pH) Nanofluid got 1.07 thermal
conductivity enhancement ratio.
Ali et al., [97] investigated the convective heat transfer augmentation for car radiator
experimentally using ZnO with water nanofluid, the researcher prepared the nanofluid solution in
different volume concentrations (0.08-0.3%), and the acidity value maintained too (2.2 pH) the lower
value, the higher thermal conductivity enhancement.
The studies on the acidity effect have settled that when fluid acidity increases, the thermal
conductivity increase.

5.7 Effect of the Magnetic Field and Electrical Pulsing

Many researchers lately investigated the effect of the magnetic field on nanofluids; those studies
resulted that the nanofluids can be affected under a specific amount of (G) in its thermal conductivity;
Figure 13 can be noticed that while the magnetic increase the nanofluid thermal conductivity
increase.
Kharat et al., [128] studied the evaluation of the thermal conductivity of NiFe2O4 with Water
under the influence of the magnetic field experimentally; results show the thermal conductivity
increase with the increase of the magnetic field, as shown in Figure 13.
Amani et al., [129] measured the thermal conductivity of spinel-type MnFe2O4 nanoparticles
suspended in Water as a base fluid in a uniform magnetic field. Figure 13 presents the results; the
increase in the magnetic field raises the thermal conductivity, hence increasing the thermal
enhancement of the nanofluid and the system.
Karimi et al., [130] investigated the effect of magnetic field on Fe3O4 and CoFe2O4 Nanofluid's
thermal conductivity in a range of (0-500G) and different nanoparticles volume fraction (0-4.8%)
experimentally, the conclusion set that the increase in the magnetic field increases the thermal
conductivity match the results of the previous studies.
Xu et al., [131] applied pulsating flow on graphene oxide nanoparticles experimentally with Water
in a pin-fin microchannel, then analysed the heat transfer; the pulsing range was (1-5Hz) and
(272,407, 544 Re) with a mass fraction (0.02, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2%), the low frequency (f < 2 Hz)
pulsating flow has no significant effect on nanofluid heat transfer enhancement compared to higher
frequencies.
The previous studies on the effect of the magnetic field show that the thermal conductivity
increase with the increase of the magnetic field (G) and increases with the increase in electrical
pulsing.
This type of study is fully needed in many applications which use nanofluids that effect by a
magnetic field or electrical waves.

6. Heat Transfer Enhancement in Ethylene Glycol and Water as Base Fluid

The studies in the enhancement of the base fluid for nanofluids does not have less important in
the heat transfer optimization; many publications have studied the heat transfer enhancement in
different base fluids like water, ethylene glycol, glycerine, acetone, pump oil, etc. or even
combination between them in specific quantities [132,133]. Table 5 summarizing some publications
on the thermal optimization of the addition ethylene glycol.
Heat transfer enhancement using MnFe2O4 – ethylene glycol has been studied experimentally in
a mini shell and tube heat exchanger by Firlianda et al., [89] has been successfully carried out; the
researchers studied the effect of adding MnFe2O4 to ethylene glycol as base fluid; the results of heat
transfer analysed by using LMTD method, the highest value was obtained at 0.075% of nanoparticles
concentration of MnFe2O4.
Rao and Ravibabu [134] investigated the enhancement of adding Al2O3-Water+ ethylene glycol
in an automobile radiator experimentally; the volume fraction range was (0.01 to 0.08%), the
nanofluid after preparation was stable, and the research found the heat transfer performance
increased by 48% compared to pure water at 0.08% of volume fraction which leads to increase the
overall automobile radiator performance.
Li et al., [135,136] investigated experimentally thermophysical properties of ZnO nanoparticles in
(50-50) EG-W and with EG in different volume concentrations; they agreed that the performance had
been increased by up to 30% compared to its base fluid.
Lee et al., [137] studied the comparative thermal conductivity enhancement ratio for CuO and
Al2O3 nanoparticles in Water and ethylene glycol in the concentration range (1-4%) for CuO and (1-
5%) for Al2O3 in the two-step method, the results show the ethylene glycol fluids thermal conductivity
enhancements value higher than the pure water as base fluid.
Recently, researchers studied mixing ethylene glycol with water to give the base fluid a higher
thermal conductivity, therefore Vandrangi et al., [138] studied the fluid dynamic of ethylene glycol-

water mixture numerically to predict the nanofluid heat transfer coefficients and mixed it with Al2O3
and SiO2 nanoparticles in different Reynolds number (5000, 80000 Re).
