Numerical investigation of nanofluid deposition in a microchannel cooling system

TL;DR: In this article , the authors conducted a numerical study to identify the best working conditions to prevent deposition of nanofluids in a microchannel cooling system, and they found that large nanoparticles, high velocity, low inlet temperature, high nanoparticle density, low nanofluid density, and high base fluid viscosity are the best conditions for improving the stability of Nanofluid stability.

Hydrodynamic and heat transfer study of dispersed fluids with submicron metallic oxide particles

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a Brookfield rotating viscometer to measure the viscosities of the dispersed fluids with γ-alumina (Al2O3) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles at a 10% volume concentration.

Anomalously increased effective thermal conductivities of ethylene glycol-based nanofluids containing copper nanoparticles

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that a "nanofluid" consisting of copper nanometer-sized particles dispersed in ethylene glycol has a much higher effective thermal conductivity than either pure or pure glycol or even polyethylene glycol containing the same volume fraction of dispersed oxide nanoparticles.
