The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 2.3 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 1.8 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.2 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00037 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.6 SJR: 0.433 SNIP: 0.593 CiteScore™:: 4.3 H-Index: 35

ABSTRACT

The performance characteristics of a car radiator with new radiator coolants of ternary hybrid nanofluid of 0.12% vol. fraction (Al2O3-CuO-TiO2/water) and water is experimentally investigated. Waste heat from the mentioned radiator coolants has been treated as the preheating intake air for a single-cylinder diesel engine, and the performance was evaluated and compared. Furthermore, the numerical analyses were processed through a mixture model and homogeneous model (single-phase) approach techniques. However, the ternary hybrid nanofluid (THNF) showed a 14% higher heat transfer coefficient at 8 Lpm, and the mixture model predicted a 5% better result than the single-phase approach. The preheating condition in the engine enhances the engine performance, and a 50% engine load reveals a maximum enhancement of 12.54% in brake thermal efficiency at 46.5° C, with a fuel-saving rate of 14.28% at 8 Lpm. Also, a variation in coolant flow rate (CFR) and air velocity for a radiator influences positive engine performance. Moreover, the engine energy distribution through the pie chart revealed that the heat transfer rate for THNF increased by 5% at an air velocity of 0.75 m/s. Therefore, the use of waste heat through THNF radiator coolants for air preheating in engines achieved the enhancement in fuel consumption rate for the same power generation.

KEY WORDS: pressure drop, enhanced heat transfer, friction factor, ternary hybrid nanofluid
