Abstract:Recent developments in liquid technology have created a new class of fluids called "nanofluids" which are two-phase mixtures of a non-metal-liquid matrix and addon particles usually less than 100 nm in size. It is reputed that such liquids have a great potential for application. Indeed, many tests have shown that their thermal conductivity can be increased by almost 20% compared to that of the base fluids for a relatively low particle loading (of 1 up to 5% in volume). It is confirmed by experimental data and … Show more
