Objectives: Fluids like nanofluids which are rich in thermal conductivity have very good impact on the heat transfer rate of any device. The main aim of this study is to carry out research on the heat transfer characteristics of plate heat exchanger with different orientations using Al2O3/nanofluids. Methods: Two different concentration (0.1% v/v and 0.2% v/v) of nanofluids have been used in this research. Inclination angles 0°, 30°, 60°, 90° have been used in this experiment. Experiments firstly carried out with double distilled water then with 0.1% and 0.2% v/v nanofluids. Performance of plate heat exchanger with use of nanofluids compared with water to check the effects of use of nanofluids. Findings: Results addresses that the overall performance of the plate heat improve by using nanofluids as a working fluid in a plate heat exchanger. Average increment of approximately 28% has been noticed in case of the nanofluids. Results also addresses that the average decrement of approximately 10- 15% has been observed when the orientation of plate heat exchanger changes from horizontal to inclined (30°). Improvements/Applications: This technique can be used in industries to improve the performance of heat exchange device.Keywords

An intuitive way of performing young’s double slit experiment have been proposed which can mark an end to the long-lasting debate of wave-particle duality. Insights related to it have been derived from the understanding of nature which include a hypothesis. Observer effect went obsolete and observed result matches with classical physics results.Keywords

Solid-to-water proportion decides the effectiveness of paste backfill in terms of transportation characteristics during mine backfilling. This article highlights various laboratory tests conducted to determine the optimum solid-to-water ratio. Also, numerical simulation was carried out using computational fluid dynamics technique (ANSYS FLUENT) to understand the slump lifting process and variation in volume of the paste with time. The optimum slump and spread for lead–zinc mill tailings paste were in the range 190– 200 mm and 330–340 mm respectively. The optimum water content in the paste fill for this study was found to be 23 wt%. Results show that the solid percentage is inversely related with slump and spread. Also, an optimum slump lifting speed needs to be maintained for accurate values of slump and spread.Keywords
