Nanofluid particle size

Gourav · June 27, 2014, 03:34

Hey, Im modelling flow of nanofluids in circular tube. I needed to know how to set the size of nanofluid particles in Fluent. I need to set it at 100 nm, so where can i input this data?

Thank you in advance.

Look my friend you can model as single phase with modified fluid properties .There are some
equations to modify fluid properties due to the presence of particles .

I'm modelling for both single phase and double phase. Also the fluid properties that i defined depends on the volumetric concentration of the particles in the base fluid. So Im not sure where exactly is the size taken into consideration.

I don't think that fluent can model such sizes

Hi Gourav
I am also working on nanofluid simulation. Kindly tell me if you have found any solution to your problem of setting particle diameter in single phase flow
