Empirical correlating equations for predicting the effective thermal conductivity and dynamic viscosity of nanofluids
TL;DR: In this article, two empirical correlations for predicting the effective thermal conductivity and dynamic viscosity of nanofluids, based on a high number of experimental data available in the literature, are proposed and discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigations of thermal conductivity and viscosity of nanofluids
TL;DR: In this paper, a combined experimental and theoretical study on the effective thermal conductivity and viscosity of nanofluids is conducted and two static mechanisms-based models are presented to predict the enhanced thermal conductivities of nanoparticles having spherical and cylindrical nanoparticles.
