Abstract

This project aim to increase the heat transfer rate of the coolant with the help of nano particles Al2O3). It further increases the efficiency of the radiator, coolant & the engine. The best proportion of flow rate and concentration of nano - particles (Al2O3) have been achieved to maximize the heat transfer rate of the coolant. Newly emerging technologies due to their compactness are not being effectively served by the conventional heat transfer fluids. To serve these emerging technologies, Nano fluids are found to be better alternatives to the conventional heat transfer fluids. The heat transfer enhancement for many industrial applications by adding solid Nano particles to liquids is significant topics in the last few years. In this Paper, an attempt is made to review literature related to radiator effectiveness and its efficiency improvement techniques. Finely good technique is selected for further study. it is observed that by adding nano-sized particles to the coolant fluid in radiator, one can significantly reduce its output temperature. In addition, it has been demonstrated that by adding 5% of nano-particles to the coolant fluid, thermal performance of the radiator in a hot weather of 50Ëš C can be better than its performance in the weather of 20ËšC.
