Heat transfer measurements of Polyalpha-Olefin- boron nitride nanofluids for thermal management and lubrication applications by Sleiti, Ahmad K.

“…The heat transfer enhancement in terms of Nussel Number showed average and maximum values of 10%–13%, 17%–20% and 26%–29% for hBN concentration of 0.25%, 0.6% and 1%, respectively. Two competing phenomena affect the heat transfer performance: the increase/decrease in resistance to thermal diffusion sublayer when thermal conductivity increases and viscosity decreases, respectively. …”

Cultivating microalgae in desert conditions: Evaluation of the effect of light‐temperature summer conditions on the growth and metabolism of nannochloropsis qu130 by Jabri, Hareb Al

“…In the Qatar desert the temperature varies widely, typically between 10° and 45 °C There are also wide variations in light intensity, with values of over 1500 μmolhν.m−2s−1 in summer. A study of the effects of these thermal and light fluctuations is therefore essential for large‐scale outdoor production systems, especially during the summer when temperature and light fluctuations are at their highest. …”
