Abstract

 The influence of nanofluid on forced convection and friction factor in downward flow in slope pipes is studied using
copper oxide - thermal oil nanofluid. Accordingly, the flow's shape is fully developed, and the tube's isothermal wall serves as another
boundary condition. Prantle number is used to examine the effects of solid-fluid, negative slope, and forced convection. When the
mass concentration of nanoparticles rises, the outcomes of forced convection somewhat improve. In this article, it is suggested to use
a few formulae to assess forced convection and pressure drop in downhill flow under contact wall temperature and fully developed
flow. The maximum variance, or 18%, is acceptable for experimental research that can be used in manufacturing. the forced
convection rate and pumping power rate that go together
