Application of nanofluids in heating buildings and reducing pollution

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the performance of nanofluid convective heat transfer and viscosity measurements and evaluated how they performed heating buildings in cold regions, and found that the heat transfer coefficient increases with volume concentration, and that using nanoparticles in heat exchangers could reduce volumetric and mass flow rates, and result in an overall pumping power savings.

Effects of Wall's thermophysical properties on time lag and decrement factor

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of thermophysical properties and thickness of a wall of a building on time lag and decrement factor have been investigated, and a very general code which can take care of composite walls under any kind of boundary condition was developed.
