Description

The effect of magnetic concentration and applied magnetic field on pool boiling heat transfer of a water-based magnetic fluid was investigated on a vertical heater. The experiments showed that there was an optimum magnetite concentration in which the enhancement of heat transfer was best for the dilute magnetite particles; and this conclusion was the same with the applied magnetic field. The boiling heat transfer of magnetic fluid was enhanced by the applied magnetic field. (authors)
