In this article, researchers set out to determine the thermal characteristics of boron nitride reinforced high-density polyethylene composites. Various filler contents were studied through thermal characterization and it was determined that the composites containing 30% filler elicited the best thermal insulation and mechanical properties. The results ...
The field of nanofluids is relatively new, however researchers in this article aimed to research their thermal conductivity and dispersion behaviours. A nanofluid consists of free-floating, solid nanoparticles suspended in a base fluid. Specifically, Al2O3-H2O nanofluids were investigated in this study. Using ...
Thermal conductivity of heating and cooling fluids with added nanoparticles dubbed 'nanofluids' are used as potential to improve the efficiency of heat transfer fluids using a thermal constants analyser. The Thermal conductivity enhancements of Cu-H2O nanofluids are dependent on the weight fraction of nanoparticles, ...
