Bibliography:A numerical study has been carried out for a laminar steady mixed convection flow in a 2D triangular enclosure with an inner rotating coaxial cylinder, with the enclosure filled with ethylene glycol-silicon carbide (SiC-EG). The thermal conductivity and viscosity of the SiC-EG nanofluids were experimentally determined by using a Decagon Devices KD2 Pro thermal property meter and a rotational Brookfleld viscometer, respectively. rotation velocity, solid volume fraction, dimensionless radius of the Various pertinent parameters, such as the dimensionless inner cylinder, and Rayleigh numbers, were analyzed to determine their influences on heat transfer and fluid flow. Results clearly show how the direction of rotation of the cylinder affects the thermal performance in a triangular enclosure. It is found that the average Nusselt number increases with rise in the Rayleigh number or as more nanoparticles are added to the base liquid. It was also observed that at constant Rayleigh number, different rotational conditions have remarkable effects on the flow and heat transfer characteristics.
