Abstract
  In this analysis, nanofluid properties are evaluated by interaction correlations between particles using molecular dynamics (MD) method, and thermal-hydraulics characteristics of nanofluids in a WWER-1000 reactor is investigated by Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). This study conceptualizes power increase ...  Read More
