Abstract

In the present automobile sector, a computational fluid dynamics analysis helps in optimizing the radiator size. Cooling performances of nanofluid over the tubes of a radiator are to be observed. The dominance of nanofluid over the base fluid, water has to be evaluated. Governing the continuity, energy and momentum equations for laminar flow helps in a numerical simulation. In this phase, Maruti Suzuki 800 radiator is taken as a model that has to be optimized. Based on the existing dimensions the modeling is carried out. The test liquid will flow over the radiator which consists of 57 tubes with circular section while air makes a constant cross flow inside the banks of tubes. Nanofluids could enhance engine heat dissipating capacity. The main motto of our project is to optimize the size of the radiator and the heat dissipating capacity is to be increased. The modeling is created using SolidWorks. The optimization of Nanofluids is to be analyzed using Computational Fluid Dynamics.
