Description
Summary:Nanofluids behave like non-Newtonian fluids in many cases and, therefore, studying their symmetrical behavior is of paramount importance in nanofluid heat transfer modeling. This article attempts to provide are flection on symmetry via thorough description of a variety of non-Newtonian models and further provides a comprehensive review of articles on non-Newtonian models that have applied symmetrical flow modeling and nanofluid heat transfer. This study reviews articles from recent years and provides a comprehensive analysis of them. Furthermore, a thorough statistical symmetrical analysis regarding the commonality of nanoparticles, base fluids and numerical solutions to equations is provided. This article also investigates the history of nanofluid use as a non-Newtonian fluid; that is, the base fluid is considered to be non-Newtonian fluid or the base fluid is Newtonian, such as water. However, the nanofluid in question is regarded as non-Newtonian in modeling. Results show that 25% of articles considered nanofluids with Newtonian base fluid as a non-Newtonian model. In this article, the following questions are answered for the first time: Which non-Newtonian model has been used to model nanofluids? What are the most common non-Newtonian base fluids? Which numerical method is most used to solve non-Newtonian equations?
