Nanofluid Geothermal Heat Exchanger: Effectiveness-NTU Charts
2D companion to the 3D nanofluid geothermal heat exchanger simulator: the same Maxwell effective-conductivity model, Dittus-Boelter convection correlation and NTU heat-exchanger equations, read off a pipe cross-section, a temperature-along-pipe profile, a conductivity-enhancement-vs-loading curve and a heat-extraction-vs-flow chart.
This is the 2D counterpart to the 3D nanofluid geothermal heat exchanger scene, computing the identical Maxwell effective-medium conductivity, Dittus-Boelter convective correlation and NTU heat-exchanger model through four live panels instead of a rendered 3D pipe: an animated cross-section of fluid and nanoparticles flowing through hot rock with physically scaled Brownian jitter, a temperature-along-pipe profile from inlet to outlet, a conductivity-enhancement-vs-loading curve for the selected particle material, and a heat-extraction-vs-flow-velocity chart. Pick a particle material, set the loading, particle size, flow velocity and rock temperature and watch every readout and chart react to the same formulas.
