Thermally conductive nanoparticles are often added to conventional fluids to improve thermal properties. In this paper, the effect of small concentrations of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) on thermal conductivity over a range of temperatures was tested. A Thermal Constant Analyser measured the thermal conductivity of the nanofluids with the transient plane source (TPS) method from 10 to 80 °C. Results showed that thermal conductivity of the nanofluids increased with temperature, and with ...
With the increasing popularity of nanofluids (NFs), understanding their thermal properties is critical. In this paper, a thermal constant analyzer measured the thermal conductivity of copper/palladium bimetallic nanostructure-based nanofluids using the transient plane source (TPS) method. Results showed that the addition of the nanoparticles enhanced the thermal conductivity of the nanofluids by approximately 19%....
