In the present study, mathematical modeling is performed to simulate force d convection flow of Al 2 O 3 /water nanofluids in a microchannel using the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). Simulations are conducted at low Reynolds numbers (Re ≦ 16). Results indicate that the average Nusselt number increas
