Applications of Hybrid Nanofluids in Science and Engineering delves deep into the multifaceted realms in which these dynamic fluids are playing a pivotal role in various fields.

This comprehensive volume elucidates the diverse applications and promising potentials of hybrid nanofluids. It introduces hybrid nanofluids and their preparation methods, thermophysical properties, advantages, applications, and future scope. Models to compute the effective thermophysical properties of hybrid nanofluids are also discussed, along with their limitations. In the application section, mathematical models are formulated to contemplate the flow of hybrid nanofluids through different surfaces/geometries under different situations. Also, the entropy generation minimization in hybrid nanofluid flow is discussed with its application in refrigeration, power generation, and other processes.

The subject matter in this book will enable the reader to do the following:

• Learn the ins and outs of hybrid nanofluids—from how they are made to the special characteristics they embody
• Explore hybrid nanofluids' potential in thermal management, energy systems, materials science, biomedical engineering, and more
• Use advanced computational and analytical methods to analyse complex fluid dynamics models
• Anticipate the impact of hybrid nanofluid research on upcoming sectors like renewable energy and innovative manufacturing

This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in mechanical and chemical engineering and materials science.
