This study aims to use Boron Nitride (BN) materials as thermo-conductive fillers to enhance the heat transfer in fluids. For this study, BN nanotubes, and nanospheres were added to fluids, to test for individual thermal enhancements. With the addition of BN nanotubes to water, the ...
Boron Nitride filled epoxy composites are explored on a thermal and mechanical scale within this research article. Researchers took special interest in the effect of filler content, mixing conditions and Boron Nitride agglomerate size, on the thermal conductivity of the composite. Experimental results alluded to ...
The Transient Plane Source method was used in this research article to measure the thermal conductivity of an Ionanofluid, highly stable graphene (GE)-based nanofluid, at various temperatures. Researchers took special note of the effects of temperature, GE loading, presence of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), ...
The thermal conductivity of heat transfer nanofluids has been determined to increase by 10%, when containing metal oxide nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes. The fluid viscosity of the nanofluids is relatively the same as water, and therefore cannot not account for the increase in thermal conductivity. However, ...
In mold fluxes, fluorine is generally added to reduce viscosity and solidification. The fluorine however, tends to cause corrosion of the casting machine and leads to environmental pollution. To potentially rid this design of these issues, researchers in this study examined the Fluorine-free mold flux, ...
