We investigate through non-equilibrium molecular dynamic simulations the flow of anomalous fluids inside rigid nanotubes. Our results reveal an anomalous increase of the overall mass flux for nanotubes with sufficiently smaller radii. This is explained in terms of a transition from a single-file type of flow to the movement of an ordered-like fluid as the nanotube radius increases. The occurren...

Nanofluids are new generation heat transfer fluids and have opened a new horizon in the areas of heat transfer applications. Nanofluids are prepared by dispersing nano-sized metallic particles in conventional fluids of heat transfer. Heat transfer performance of nanofluid depends primarily on its thermo physical properties like viscosity, thermal conductivity, specific heat and density. Viscosi...

Running the industrial components at a proper temperature is always a big challenge for engineers. Internal combustion engines are among these components in which temperature plays a big role in their performance and emissions. With the development of new technology in the fields of ‘nano-materials’ and ‘nano-fluids’, it seems very promising to use this technology as a coolant in the interna...

Anisotropic fluids are widespread, ranging from liquid crystals used in displays to ordered states of a biological cell interior. Optical trapping is potentially a powerful technique in the fundamental studies and applications of anisotropic fluids. We demonstrate that laser beams in these fluids can generate anisotropic optical trapping forces, even for particles larger than the trapping beam ...

Abstract Nanofluids, which are suspensions of nanoparticles in base fluids, have gained significant attention recent years due to their enhanced thermal and electrical properties. In particular, propylene glycol-water nanofluids been extensively investigated for The primary goal this study is evaluate the characteristics containing graphene powder distributed glycol-water. Compositions 100:0, 7...

In this study, one type of nano-engineered heat transfer fluids: Water/AOT/Polyalphaolefin (PAO) nanoemulsion fluids are prepared, and their phase change heat transfer properties have been investigated. The Water/AOT/Polyalphaolefin nanoemulsion heat transfer fluids which are thermodynamically stable are spontaneously generated by a self-assembly of dispersed water nanodroplets The results, exp...

Machining difficult-to-cut materials is one of the increasingly concerned issues in metalworking industry. Low machinability and high cutting temperature generated from contact zone are main obstacles that need to be solved order improve economic technical efficiency but still have ensure environmental friendliness. The application MQL method using nano fluid suggested solutions cooling lubrica...
