Narendran, G.Gnanasekaran, N.Arumuga Perumal, D.A.2026-02-062018International Conference on Computational Methods for Thermal Problems, 2018, Vol.0, , p. 535-53823055995https://doi.org/https://idr.nitk.ac.in/handle/123456789/31596The present study reports the numerical investigation of laminar forced convection based on TiO<inf>2</inf> nanofluid in a rectangular copper microchannel surrounded by Aluminium block to examine the cooling effects for increased flow rates and particle concentration. The analysis involves the use of pure fluid and TiO<inf>2</inf> nanofluid with the volume fractions of 0.01, 0.15, 0.20 and 0.25% for different flow rates. The study also examines the influence of conjugate heat transfer behavior of the microchannel using commercially available software FLUENT-15. © 2018 by the authors of the abstracts.Conjugate heat transferForced convectionMicrochannelNanofluids
