Q2. What are the future works mentioned in the paper "Effect of particle size on the viscosity of nanofluids: a review" ?
For future works, wide and systematic range of parameters in terms of particle size, particle concentration and temperature should be employed for eliminating the discrepancies of the particle size effect. This effort will be helpful to develop new wellaccepted models.
Q3. What should be used for removing the discrepancies of the particle size effect?
For future works, wide and systematic range of parameters in terms of particlesize, particle concentration and temperature should be employed for eliminating the discrepancies of the particle size effect.
Q4. What is the effect of particle size on the viscosity of nanofluids?
The viscosity of the nanofluids was measured by using ananofluids with smaller particles provide higher viscosity because of the smaller solid/liquid interfacial area of larger particles.
Q5. What is the effect of particle size on the stability of the nanofluid?
stability and agglomeration are directly influenced by the particlesize distribution of the nanofluid, they need to be considered prior toshould be provided rather than providing size distribution of nanoparticlesin powder form.
Q6. What did they claim was that the nanoparticles were well dispersed?
They claimed that the nanoparticles were well dispersed and did not aggregate more than a year when they conducted the experiments.
Q7. Who was one of the first groups to investigate the transport properties of nanofluids?
Li et al. [21] was one of the first groups who investigated the transport properties of nanofluids and observed that the viscosity was not only affected by the volume concentration, but also the sizeof nanoparticles.
Q8. How many times greater was the viscosity of water?
the viscosity of Al2O3 nanofluids with 10 and 30 nm were 1.6 and 1.8times greater than the viscosity of water, respectively.
Q9. How was the viscosity of the nanofluid measured?
Viscosity measurement of Al2O3–water nanofluid was done by using a piston-type viscometer with two different sizes (36 and 47 nm).
