A benchmark study on the thermal conductivity of nanofluids

Jacopo Buongiorno, +72 more
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.

A Benchmark Study on the Thermal Conductivity of Nanofluids

TL;DR: The International Nanofluid Property Benchmark Exercise (INPBE) as discussed by the authors 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.

Viscosity Measurements on Colloidal Dispersions (Nanofluids) for Heat Transfer Applications

TL;DR: This article examined the influence of particle shape and concentration on the viscosity of colloidal dispersions collected as part of the International Nanofluid Property Benchmark Exercise (INPBE).
Journal ArticleDOI

Time-dependent strength of colloidal gels.

TL;DR: It is proposed that increases in local elasticity arising from bonding between neighboring colloidal particles can account for the strengthening of the network, while preserving network structure.
