Abstract
The aim of this article was to examine the effect of hybrid nano – coating that could potentially impact the enhancement of heat transfer coefficient of distilled water, Reynolds number, and temperature through a swirl heat exchanger, as well as the indicator of the effect Zeta voltage in the coating process. In this experimental work, type of coating used was Aluminum (Al) + Aluminum oxide Al2O3. Outcomes of study showed that the coating of heat exchanger is much better than without coating in improving the thermal properties for liquids passing through heat exchanger as well as increasing the heat exchange through the surface of the exchanger. Results in the article indicated that the use of hybrid nano – structure coating is for inducing the feature of super – hydrophobicity for the surface that touches the fluid included within the heating transferring. Such feature can make an increase in the heating transferring factor and a decreasing in power losing produced via friction. This article indicated that the Zeta voltage analysis is to show the stability of the hybrid nanofluids used in the coating process. The enhanced technology depends upon the concept that exists in nature under the name “Lotus effect” to get super-hydrophobic surfaces. The rate of improvement in heat transfer using hybrid nanoparticles is 33% compared to that without coating condition.
