Role of Adsorbing Moieties on Thermal Conductivity and Associated Properties of Nanofluids

In this study, soft sphere surfactants, with varying head group charges and alkyl chain lengths, were investigated for their effects on the thermal conductivity, rheology, density, contact angle and refractive index of nanofluids. It was noted that the thermal conductivity of the ionic surfactant micelles follows the effective medium theory of poor thermal conductance, with interfacial resistance towards infinity. It was also determined that the longer the alkyl chains on ...

Tunable Thermal Transport in Phase Change Materials Using Inverse Micellar Templating and Nanofillers

In this study, the thermal conductivity of alkanes was altered, by using inverse micellar templating and nanofibers. The main goal of this study was to create alkanes with tunable thermal conductivities, for their use as phase change materials in heat management. The thermal conductivity of an n-hexadecane product with inverse micelles of different volume fractions was analyzed. The tunable thermal conductivity of the micelle templated alkaline was determined to be ...
