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 paper, high-speed video and infrared thermometry were used to obtain time and space-resolved information on bubble nucleation and heat transfer in pool boiling of water.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of surface wettability, porosity, and roughness on the critical heat flux (CHF) of water were examined using engineered surfaces and the results showed that porosity had little effect on the smooth non-porous surface CHF.

TL;DR: In this article, the quenching curves for small (∼1 cm) metallic spheres exposed to pure water and water-based nanofluids with alumina, silica and diamond nanoparticles at low concentrations (⩽0.1vol%) were acquired experimentally.
