Abstract
<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">The latest developments in composite materials are anticipated by green
engineering. Materials must be eco-friendly, recyclable, biodegradable, and easy
to decompose. Researchers are interested in utilizing natural fibres, fillers,
and synthetic active ingredients. Natural fiber-polymer composites can specify
certain mechanical properties but are hydrophilic and weak, so they rarely meet
the needed thermal properties. Composite material selection depends on the
application and the superior properties of the fibre/filler: banana fibre (BF),
ice husk (RH) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT). In this research
article, a brief discussion of the heat transfer mechanism of composites and the
development of energy conduction equation are performed for hybrid natural
polymer composite. The maximum thermal conductivity observed for
10BF/10RH/1MWCNT wt.% composite is 0.2694 W/mK. From ANSYS numerical simulation,
the temperature distribution along the composite wall temperatures T1 to T8
(inner slab: 353K, interface slab: 333K, and outer slab: 313 K) and along with
the maximum internal heat generation (inner Slab: 76.418 W/m2, interface slab:
76.402 W/m2 and exterior slab: 76.285 W/m2) resisted by the polymer matrix
composite. Finally, it is concluded that the probe temperature and heat flux
experimental and analytical data are identical.</div></div>
