A Benchmark Study on the Thermal Conductivity of Nanofluids

TL;DR: The International Nanofluid Property Benchmark Exercise (INPBE) as discussed by the authors was held in 1998, where the thermal conductivity of identical samples of colloidally stable dispersions of nanoparticles or "nanofluids" was measured by over 30 organizations worldwide, using a variety of experimental approaches, including the transient hot wire method, steady state methods, and optical methods.

MHD double-diffusive mixed convection and entropy generation of nanofluid in a trapezoidal cavity

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used second and fourth order finite difference approximations to solve the governing equations by using biconjugate gradient stabilized method (BiCGStab) to minimize entropy generations due to combined effects of fluid flow, heat transfer, mass transfer and the effect of magnetic field.

A Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism

TL;DR: The most influential nineteenth-century scientist for twentieth-century physics, James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879) demonstrated that electricity, magnetism and light are all manifestations of the same phenomenon: the electromagnetic field as discussed by the authors.

A review of the applications of nanofluids in solar energy

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the effects of nanofluids on the performance of solar collectors and solar water heaters from the efficiency, economic and environmental considerations viewpoints, and made some suggestions to use the nanoparticles in different solar thermal systems such as photovoltaic/thermal systems, solar ponds, solar thermoelectric cells, and so on.
