Abstract:

 This work presents a model for calculating the effective ‎thermal conductivity of nanofluids. The proposed model ‎includes the effects of nanoparticles and thermal conductivity ‎base fluid.We will focus on experimental of the volume ‎concentration parameter and temperature on thermal ‎conductivity, nano-fluid combination and Multi-Walled ‎Carbon nanotubes-Oxide / Copper-paid deionized Water. This ‎water-based nanofluids, For two-step volume fractions of the ‎‎0.1, 0.2, 0.6 Percentage produced And then, Effective thermal ‎conductivity is measured precisely. In order to measure the ‎thermal conductivity of nanofluids. To measure the thermal ‎conductivity coefficient in THW method, KD2-pro and KS1 ‎probe was used, also with the fluid significantly enhancement ‎shows in thermal conductivity coefficient. Also with the fluid ‎significantly enhancement shows in thermal conductivity ‎coefficient. In lower volume fractions we observed ‎significantly increase in thermal conductivity and receive high ‎degree thermal. Due to the lack of similar studies Due to the ‎lack of similar studies to comprehensively and inefficient of ‎classical thermal conductivity, In order to estimate the thermal ‎conductivity of nanofluids An empirical model that estimates ‎the thermal conductivity of nanofluids model with deviation ‎margin is very low‏‏

Thermal Conductivity of Nanofluids

Nanofluids are suspensions of nanoparticles in base fluids, a new challenge for thermal sciences provided by nanotechnology. Nanofluids have unique features different from conventional solid-liquid mixtures in which mm or μm sized particles of metals and non-metals are dispersed. Due to their excellent characteristics, nanofluids find wide applications in enhancing heat transfer. Research work ...

Experimental investigation on the thermal conductivity of Triethylene Glycol-Water-CuO nanofluids as a desiccant for dehydration process

Liquid desiccants such as glycols are used in dehydration process, among which Triethylene Glycol (TEG) is considered as a common choice. The addition of nanoparticles to TEG as the base fluid is one of the prevalent method to improve thermal properties of TEG. In this study, an experimental investigation was performed on thermal conductivity of TEG-based nanofluids with 20 and 40 nm diameter c...
