Irreversibility Reduction in Vapour Compression Refrigeration Systems Using Al2O3 Nano Material Mixed in R718 as Secondary Fluid
TL;DR: In this paper, a thermal modelling of a vapour compression refrigeration system using energy-exergy analysis is presented, which takes care the nanoparticles mixed in the fluids as input conditions in the secondary evaporator circuit as geometric characteristics of the system such as size of nanoparticles and compressor speed to predict the secondary fluids output temperatures, the operating pressures, the compressor power consumption and the system overall energy performance.

On Some Convective Mechanisms of Nanofluids
TL;DR: In this paper , an attempt is made to summarize the study of the convective mechanisms of nanofluids and describe the important slip mechanisms in magnetic nanophotonics which provide useful information to study different convective mechanism in these smart fluids.

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.

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.
