An experimental investigation of turbulent thermal convection in water-based alumina nanofluid

TL;DR: In this paper, heat transfer and flow dynamics measurements of alumina nanofluid in turbulent convective flow have been conducted and it has been found that the convective heat transfer coefficient, h, Nusselt number, N u, and Rayleigh number, R a, all decrease with the increasing volume fraction ϕ of the nanoparticle.

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.
