Join us at the International Thermal Conductivity Conference (ITCC) and the International Thermal Expansion Symposium (ITES).
In the past twenty years, the behavior of the apparent thermal conductance of two or three phase systems comprised of solid particles with nanometer dimensions suspended in fluids, dubbed nanofluids, has been greatly contested in literature. After the study of the seven simplest nanofluids, Cu, CuO, Al2O3, and TiO2 suspended in water and ethylene glycol, ...
Many studies have been conducted on nanofluids with bases of water and ethylene glycol. Cyclic alkane, more commonly known as cyclohexane, can be used as the base liquid for cold storage, however minimal research has been conducted with these solutions. This study explores the temperature-dependent thermal conductivity of cyclohexane with copper oxide nanoparticles. Thermal conductivity was measured using the Thermal Constants Analyser. Samples were tested between 10 °C and 50 °C, increasing ...
