Numerical study of forced convection heat transfer of Al2O3-Cu/water hybrid nanofluid in a micro-scale backward facing step channel

The present work numerically investigates the laminar forced convection heat transfer of Al2O3-Cu/water hybrid nanofluid over a micro-scale backward facing step (MBFS) channel using finite volume method. The MBFS channel has an expansion ratio (ER)=1.9423 with a step height (S) = 490 µm. The upstrea...
