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 ...
All reliable experimental data available relating to the viscosity and thermal conductance of water has been collected and turned into the current temperature scale and a set of units. There are four groups of data collected; liquid at ambient pressure, the rest of the liquid ...
An investigation on the enhancement of the thermal conductivity of water with the addition of multiwalled carbon nanotubes, (C-MWNT). C-MWNT occupied 0.6% of the volume in the test sample for every test repetition. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was ...
Using a bare and a coated hot-wire apparatus, new data has been collected to determine the thermal conductivity of liquid water along the saturation line. This reference material data was collected with extremely high accuracy so ...
A detailed development of a local heat transfer probe specifically designed for analyzing nanofluids. In this paper iron oxide is used as a test subject to determine the accuracy of the probe. Different concentrations were measured ranging ...
