Study on the Dispersion Characteristics of Thermal Oil Based Nanofluids Using Different Techniques

Throughout years of studies by researchers on nanofluids, it is proven that by adding small quantity of nanoparticles into the fluid can lead to increment in fluid thermal conductivity. This discovery benefits the most especially for organic fluids such as thermal oil which having limited thermal co...
