Effect of Nanofluid on Cooling System of Engine

An automobile radiator is used for the cooling purpose of the engine. The cooling system of an engine plays an important role in its performance for these reason researchers are using different types of Nano fluids as coolant which increases the effectiveness of radiator, increases the performance of an engine and decline the fuel consumption. In this study 1.2% volume concentration of Al2O3 nano particles water based nano fluid is used and observes that effectiveness of an automobile radiator enhance up to 23% at constant mass flow rate
