Predicting the effective thermal conductivity of carbon nanotube based nanofluids.
TL;DR: A theoretical model based on three-dimensional CNT chain formation (percolation) in the base liquid and the corresponding thermal resistance network is presented and a new dimensionless parameter is introduced that alone characterizes the nanofluid thermal conductivity with reasonable accuracy.

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.

Measuring Thermal Conductivity of Fluids Containing Oxide Nanoparticles
TL;DR: In this paper, a transient hot-wire method was used to measure the thermal conductivity of a small amount of nanoparticles and the experimental results showed that these nanoparticles have substantially higher thermal conductivities than the same liquids without nanoparticles.
