Kerosene graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) nanofluids have a potential use in regenerative cooling of semi-cryogenic rocket thrust chamber. Before they can be used, more must be known about this substance's physical qualities. This study focuses on finding the effective thermal conductivity of this type of nanofluid, specifically at .005, 0.05 and 0.2 weight percentage (wt%) and 300, 500 and 750 mm2/g, specific surface area (SSA) of ...
Chemically modified graphene (CMG) was obtained by combining aminopropyllsobutyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (NH2-POSS) and hydrazine monohydrate to functionalize graphene oxide (GO). CMG and polyimide (PI) were combined to create the CMG/PI nanocomposite. The properties of this nanocomposite were obtained using a variety of methods. The thermal conductivity measurements were performed using a TPS instrument by utilizing the transient plane source (TPS) method. It was found that the thermal ...
This article examined the properties of bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3) after “graphene-inspired” exfoliation left its crystalline films with a thickness of a few atoms. The thermal conductivities were found using the transient plane source (TPS) technique and the laser-flash method. An instrument was used for obtaining the thermal conductivity with the TPS technique. It was found that the exfoliated thin films have low thermal conductivity, relatively ...
This article studied the thermal conductivity of deionized (DI) water and ethylene glycol (EG) based nanofluids with varying temperatures for different volume fractions of N-(rGO-MWNTs) (nitrogen doped hybrid structure of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs)). The thermal conductivity was found by using the transient plane source (TPS) method by using a Thermal Analyser. From the experimental results, it was noted that the thermal conductivity of ...
The present study investigates the experimental characterization of cementitious materials combined with four different carbon nanofillers; multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), carbon nanofibers (CNFs), carbon black (CB) and graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs). Measurements of thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity were carried out using the Transient Plane Source (TPS) technique. MWCNTs were found to influence thermal conductivity when they were aligned, compared to randomly distributed. GNP paste exhibited the highest thermal conductivity....
