Summary
With the growing demand for compact, efficient, and smart thermal systems, nanofluids have emerged as a powerful class of working fluids that enhance heat and mass transfer rates. Recent developments include hybrid and tri-hybrid nanofluids, magnetically responsive suspensions, bio-convective models, and the integration of fractional calculus and AI-assisted simulations.
This special issue aims to capture these evolving trends, providing a platform for interdisciplinary researchers to publish cutting-edge findings that address current challenges and future directions in nano heat and mass transfer.
Scope and Objectives:
This special issue will cover the following subjects:
· Advanced modeling of nanofluid and hybrid nanofluid systems
· Mass transport enhancement in porous, rotating, and oscillating domains
· Role of magnetic fields, radiation, and chemical reactions in nano-transport
· Use of fractional derivatives in thermal and fluid systems modeling
· Machine learning and data-driven methods in heat transfer predictions
· Experimental validation and parametric studies in nano heat exchangers
· Emerging applications in electronics cooling, MEMS, solar collectors, and biomedical systems
