TL;DR: In this article, an innovative new class of heat transfer fluids can be engineered by suspending metallic nanoparticles in conventional heat-transfer fluids, which are expected to exhibit high thermal conductivities compared to those of currently used heat transfer fluid, and they represent the best hope for enhancing heat transfer.

Hydrodynamic and heat transfer study of dispersed fluids with submicron metallic oxide particles
Bock Choon Pak,Young I. Cho +1 more
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.

Colours in Metal Glasses and in Metallic Films
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the presence of many of these minute spheres to a wave-length of light in the glass will account for all the optical properties of "regular" gold ruby glass, and that the irregularities in colour and in polarisation effects sometimes exhibited by gold glass are due to excessive distance between consecutive gold particles or to excessive size of such particles.
