Research on Heat Transfer of Nanofluid in Porous Media: A Mini Review
Summary
This mini review examines literature from 1998 to 2024 on heat transfer of nanofluids in porous media, summarizing analytical methods, forced convection models, the role of Darcy number, and how nanofluid type and flow geometry influence thermal performance across different porous media configurations.
In this article, the recent developments in the literature on the application of heat transfer of nanofluids used in porous materials are examined. By analysing the articles published between 1998-2024, it is aimed to facilitate the researchers working in this field in their studies in this field. In this context, different analytical methods are used to describe flow and heat transfer in different porous media. In addition, various methods used in the modelling of nanofluids are described in detail. Here, analytical methods and forced convection heat transfer in porous media are discussed. In various studies in the literature, it is stated that a change in the height of the solid and porous media causes a change in the flow regime inside the pore cell. However, the effect of Darcy number (permeability value) as a dimensionless number in heat transfer varies. In this context, the statistical results obtained from the investigations examined in relation to the representation of various parameters such as the type of nanofluid and the geometry of the flow region are compared and it is thought to give an idea for future studies.
