Nanofluids for thermal management systems
Dale A. McCants,Andrew M. Hayes +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a thermal management system for cooling a computer having integrated circuits that generate heat during use is described, which can include a zinc-oxide nanofluid circulated through a series of tubes via a pump such that heat produced by electronic components of the computer can be captured by the circulating nanoffluid and then removed from the nanoparticles by a radiator.

Role of base fluid on the thermal conductivity of oleic acid coated magnetite nanofluids
TL;DR: In this article, the role of the base fluid in thermal conductivity enhancement of oleic acid coated magnetite nanoparticles dispersed in four different base fluids (toluene, xylene, mesitylene, kerosene) is studied.

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.

Thermal transport measurements of individual multiwalled nanotubes.
TL;DR: The thermal conductivity and thermoelectric power of a single carbon nanotube were measured using a microfabricated suspended device and shows linear temperature dependence with a value of 80 microV/K at room temperature.

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.

Anomalous thermal conductivity enhancement in nanotube suspensions
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have produced nanotube-in-oil suspensions and measured their effective thermal conductivity, which is anomalously greater than theoretical predictions and is nonlinear with nanotubes loadings.
