摘要: The dispersion stability and thermal conductivity of propylene glycol-based nanofluids containing Al2O3 TiO2 nanoparticles were studied in the temperature range 20–80 °C. Nanofluids with different concentrations formulated by two-step method no dispersant was used. In contrast to common belief, average particle size observed decrease increasing temperature, showed an excellent over interest. Thermal enhancement for both a nonlinear function concentration independent. Theoretical analyses also performed using existing models compared experimental results. model based on aggregation theory appears be best.
