A facile, green fabrication of aqueous nanofluids containing hydrophilic functionalized carbon nanotubes toward improving heat transfer in a closed horizontal flow passage

In the present research, the synthesis of highly stable multiwalled carbon nanotubes in aqueous media is developed using a one-pot, covalent and green functionalization technique to improve the heat transfer and hydrodynamic behavior of a horizontal stainless-steel tube subjected to a uniform heat flow at its outer surface. Instead of using...
