Surface tension of Nanofluid-type fuels containing suspended nanomaterials
Saad Tanvir,Li Qiao +1 more
TL;DR: The results show that surface tension increases both with particle concentration and particle size for all cases, and the polymer groups attached to (MWCNTs) and the surfactant layer between a particle and the surround fluid increases the electrostatic force between particles and thus reduce surface energy and surface tension.
