Abstract

The subject of this paper is forced convection of water/Al2O3 nanofluid. The aim was to perform nume­rical simulations of forced convection of water/Al2O3 nanofluid for the purpose of the development of nanofluids. The numerical simulations were carried out by means of computational fluid dynamics, using the finite volume method. The numerical simulations were per­formed using the commercial Star CCM+ software.
