Experimental Evaluation of Thermal Conductivity and Other Thermophysical Properties of Nanofluids Based on Functionalized (-OH) Mwcnt Nanoparticles Dispersed in Distilled Water

A possible way to increase thermal conductivity of working fluids, while keeping pressure drop at acceptable levels, is through nanofluids. Nanofluids are nano-sized particles dispersed in conventional fluids. great number materials have potential be used nanoparticles production and then nanofluids; one them Multi-Walled Carbon Nano Tubes (MWCNT). They around 3000 W/mK other as like CuO 76.5 W/mK. Due this fact, MWCNT nanofluids production, aiming heat transfer rate energy systems. In context, the main goal paper evaluate from synthesis experimental measurement nanofluid samples based on functionalized (-OH) nanoparticles. will analyzed with different functionalization degrees (4% wt, 6% 9% wt). addition, it quantified thermophysical properties (dynamic viscosity, specific mass) synthetized So, present work can contribute data that help researches study development According results, maximum increment obtained was 10.65% relation base fluid (water).
