Observations demonstrated that an increase in concentration enhances heat transfer performance, with Nusselt numbers ranging 112.0 at 2.0% concentration results, considering that the influence of mass flow rate on the heat dissipation coefficient rose sharply and heat transfer coefficient reached the maximum of 270.8 W/m2·K.

This work optimizes Al₂O₃ nanofluids in multilayer MCHS, boosting heat transfer to 270.8 W/m2·K while controlling pressure drop. The optimal 1.5% concentration at 0.04 kg/s offers efficient, scalable cooling solutions for electronics, automotive, and industrial applications. This research also utilized a multi-objective optimization strategy that determined proper operating conditions that would result in both thermal efficiency and pumping power.

According to our empirical model, the piezoelectric response observed from PFM analysis on the PVDF-TrFE/CFO films was mainly influenced by the interaction between the CFO MNPs and the polymer active β phase of the polymer, providing a high piezoelectric coefficient d33 (~ 6.5 pm/V) at a low CFO concentration of 5 wt%.

A theoretical model of chain aggregate-like structure formation in magnetizable polymer-based nanocomposites was employed to explain the effect of CFO MNP chain unification on the local piezoelectric strain response of PVDF-TrFE/CFO films under low magnetic fields.
