Summary

The quasi-two dimensional Al2O3-water nanofluid magneto hydro-dynamics (MHO) flowing over a circular cylinder at higher Reynolds number has been modelled using Ansys FLUENT 15.0 in a rectangular duct to' determine the viability of heat transfer enhancement. The performance indices were greater than one for all the cases tested, which indicates that the heat transfer enhancement for this flow is viable. The Nusselt number values of the present study were compared with the analytical and experimental data published earlier and found to be in perfect agreement validating the reliability of the present model.
