Join us at the International Thermal Conductivity Conference (ITCC) and the International Thermal Expansion Symposium (ITES).
The addition of thermally conductive nanoparticles to conventional heat transfer fluids enhances their performance so they can be used for high-powered applications. However, as nanoparticles are added, the liquid becomes more viscous, which decreases thermal conductivity. Changing the pH of the solution can control the clustering of nanoparticles to maintain and even enhance thermal conductivity. This study used the transient plane source (TPS) method to measure the thermal conductivity of ...
