Article highlights Receiving radiative heat flux of a water cooling panel (WCP) of an Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) is calculated numerically using the S2S model. Temperature distribution and hot spots is determined on the outer wall of CWP. Heat transfer of WCP is characterized numerically for Al2O3/Water nanofluid at various particle concentrations. Smoothing temperature distribution and hot spot removal are dedicated as the results when using nanofluid.
