The thermal conductivity of ethylene-glycol based ZnO nanofluid is computed using Equilibrium Molecular Dynamics Simulations in the Green-Kubo framework, taking into account the impact of nanoparticle volume fraction and nanofluid temperature. Mean square displacement (MSD) of the liquid phase for base fluid and nanofluid is also studied to investigate the thermal conductivity enhancement mechanism.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
