Özet
This master thesis examines how nano-fluids can improve the way heat exchangers work,
focusing on the use of Al₂O₃ nano-fluids with a 2% volume fraction. Heat exchangers play
a crucial role in many industries. This research investigates whether nano-fluids, with their
special properties from tiny particles, can work better than common fluids like water in
transferring heat. To find this out, the study uses computer simulations, mainly using the
CAD software, SOLIDWORKS. This software was used to design the specific shell and tube
heat exchangers for the study and to run the computer simulations. The goal of these
simulations is to see how nano-fluids behave, especially when they mix with other fluids,
such as cold water, inside the heat exchanger. The main goal of this thesis is to compare how
well nano-fluids and regular fluids transfer heat. It also aims to give suggestions on how to
best use these fluids in heat exchangers. By understanding the benefits and challenges of
nano-fluids, this research hopes to suggest better and more energy-saving ways to transfer
heat in industrial settings.
