The present work deals with heat transfer augmentation in a Hair-Pin heat exchanger using magnetite/water nanofluid at volume concentrations of 0.004%, 0.006% and 0.008% under turbulent flow, the effect of different concentration of magnetite nanoparticles are added in pure water as basefluid on heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop in a hair-pin heat exchanger for counteract flow arrangement are investigated. The magnetite/water nanofluid is flowing through the inner tube and Reynolds number considered is in the range of 16000 to 30000. The results showed that there is 25-33% enhancement in heat transfer coefficient at 0.008% to the water at Reynolds number range of 16000 to 30000.
