Thermal conductivity enhancement of nanofluids in conjunction with electrical double layer (EDL)
Jung-Yeul Jung,Jung Yul Yoo +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a novel expression for the thermal conductivity of nanofluids is proposed, which incorporates the kinetic theory to describe the contribution of the Brownian motion of the nanoparticles with a more realistic definition of the mean free path.
Journal ArticleDOI
An experimental study on the effect of ultrasonication on thermal conductivity of ferrofluid loaded with carbon nanotubes
TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental work on the effect of ultrasonication on thermal conductivity of aqueous nanofluids containing Fe 3 O 4 and carbon nanotubes nanoparticles emulsified and dispersed using gum arabic (GA) and tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) was performed.

Composition for enhancing thermal conductivity of a heat transfer medium and method of use thereof
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method for enhancing the thermal conductivity in heat transfer systems by using a powder having average particle sizes in the nanometer to micron size range, a coating for imparting corrosion resistance and/or acting as a dispersant.
