Comparison study of copper oxide nanofluid and borak 22 oil used for cooling an immersed coil
1 : Laboratoire Génie de Production et Maintenance Industrielle (LGPMI)
A heated coil with varying current values immersed in a rectangular cavity that has ambient temperature in the walls filled with cooling fluid was numerically investigated, the finite element method (FEM) was the utilized to solve this computation system. Isothermal contours are shown in this article for varying parameters such as the current and the choice of the fluid. The results shown that increasing the current leads to a rise in temperature whenever the type of the fluid that has been used. Additionally, to investigate which is the best cooling fluid in term of dissipating heat, we focused on how much time is needed to get the coil heat up.
