dc.description.abstractThe effects of the combined utilization of wavy wall and different nanoparticle shapes in heat transfer fluid for a thermoelectric generator (TEG) mounted vented cavity are numerically analyzed. A triangular wave form of the cavity is used, while spherical and cylindrical-shaped alumina nanoparticles are used in water up to a loading amount of 0.03 as solid volume fraction. The impacts of wave amplitude on flow and output power features are significant compared to those of the wave number. The increment in the generated power is in the range of 74.48–92.4% when the wave amplitude is varied. The nanoparticle shape and loading amount are effective in the rise of the TEG power, while by using cylindrical-shaped nanoparticles, higher powers are produced as compared to spherical ones. The rise in the TEG power by the highest loading amount is achieved as 50.7% with cylindrical-shaped particles, while it is only 4% with spherical-shaped ones. Up to a 194% rise of TEG power is attained by using the triangular wavy form of the wall and including cylindrical-shaped nanoparticles as compared to a flat-walled cavity using only pure fluid. © 2023 by the authors.
