This article studied the effect of the addition of TiO2 nanoinclusions on bulk Ba8Ga16Ge30clathrate. Both thermal conductivity and electrical resistivity were investigated. Results produced by the TPS system revealed that thermal conductivity decreased as the amount of nanoinclusions increased. The authors concluded that a shift in the peak value of the Seebeck coefficient had occurred. Electrical resistivity increased with the addition....
Nano-inclusions are thermally conductive particles that improve the thermal conductivity of liquid mediums. In this paper, the thermal properties of Mg2Si were evaluated after the addition of TiO2 nanoparticles. An instrument measured the thermal conductivity of the nanofluid using the transient plane source (TPS) method. Results showed that the thermal conductivity of the nanofluid was the highest at lower temperatures, and did not improve with the addition of the ...
