Hello,

I am working with external flow of nanofluids around cylinders. I am using multi-phase flow models in FLUENT. To be precise, I am using Eulerian and Mixture model.

But, I am observing a decrease in C_D and Nu_M, when I increase the Particle volume fraction. (Re - 10 to 40). This is in contradiction with the literature and basic behavior of nanofluids. Kindly, please help me solve this.
