Abstract

Efficient thermal management is critical for high-power electronics and industrial heat exchangers, where pool boiling serves as a highly effective cooling mechanism. Despite experimental progress, there remains a notable scarcity of numerical studies investigating the influence of ultra-dilute hybrid nanofluid (HNF) concentrations on boiling performance and bubble dynamics. This study addresses this gap by exploring the hypothesis that dispersing hybrid nanoparticles (CeO 2 -MgO and CeO 2 -SiO 2 ) in DI water at ultra-low concentrations (
