Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to examine the impacts of using a complex-shape of flow disturber on the heat transportation from a nanofluid (water-copper oxide) with a forced convection within a pipe. For this, the FVM is implemented to model behavior of nanomaterial within a pipe and the specially designed flow disturber. Through the numerical simulations, the uniform concentration of nanomaterial has been assumed in whole domain. The study, particularly, investigates the impact of the height of the flow device blade and the Reynolds number on the Nu as thermal coefficient index and the Darcy factor. The outputs demonstrate that a more turbulence regime, and consequently a better Nu, may be achieved as the height of disturber and pumping power come up. Finally, utilizing the results obtained from the simulations, two formulas have been established for the f and Nu and parameters as functions of the understudy variables, i.e., Reynolds number and the flow disturber height.
