An innovative technique of developing advanced heat transfer liquids with higher conductivities involves dispersing small amounts of nanometer-sized (10–50 nm) particles in base fluids, resulting into what is commonly known as nanofluids, a term introduced in 1995 by Choi. Several theoretical and ex ...
