A series of silver nanoparticles surface-coated with di-n-dodecyldithiophosphate, di-n-cetyldithiophosphate, or di-n-octadecyldithiophosphate have been prepared and have good dispersity in alkanes or kerosene. Stable silver nanofluids can be formed in alkanes or kerosene with the surface-coated silver nanoparticles. Thermal stability of the silver nanofluids has been measured at different tempe...

This paper presents results of investigations on the application of CuO-water nanofluids for intensification of convective heat transfer. Performance of nanofluids with 2.2 and 4.0 vol.% CuO NPs (nanoparticles) content were examined with regard to heat transfer coefficient and pressure losses in case of turbulent flow in a tube. Negligible impact of examined nanofluid on heat transfer improveme...

Increase in the specific surface area as well as Brownian motion are supposed to be the most significant reasons for the anomalous enhancement in thermal conductivity of nanofluids. This work presents a semi-empirical approach for the same by emphasizing the above two effects through micro-convection. A new way of modeling thermal conductivity of nanofluids has been explored which is found to a...

abstract: in this study, al 2 o 3 /eg and tio 2 /eg nanofluids as coolants have been used in the double-tube heat exchanger. the hot solvent inlet heat exchanger must be cooled down with a specified amount. we can use nanofluids as coolants in the heat exchanger for optimization of the heat transfer area. therefore, the efficacy of nanofluids as coolants is verified. furthermore, flow rate of c...

The heat transfer capacity of any thermal cooling system depends on two factors, i.e., the selection coolant and geometrical pattern approach.
