TL;DR: The International Nanofluid Property Benchmark Exercise (INPBE) as mentioned in this paper was held in 1998, where the thermal conductivity of identical samples of colloidally stable dispersions of nanoparticles or "nanofluids" was measured by over 30 organizations worldwide, using a variety of experimental approaches, including the transient hot wire method, steady state methods, and optical methods.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of dispersing energy (ultrasonication) on viscosity, thermal conductivity, and the laminar convective heat transfer was studied.

TL;DR: A review of recent developments in the area of surface-enhanced dropwise condensation can be found in this paper, where the development of fabrication techniques to create surface structures at the micro- and nanoscale using both bottom-up and top-down approaches has led to increased study of complex interfacial phenomena.

TL;DR: In this paper, latent heat of fusion, melting and freezing points, and temperature and concentration-dependent viscosity data were presented, and the impact of using enhanced surface tubing in combination with MPCM slurry under constant heat flux and turbulent conditions.
