Abstract

Nanofluids is a new benevolent of heat transfer medium, containing nanoparticles (1–100 nm)which are consistently and sturdily distributed in a base fluid such as water, ethylene glycol, methanol or oil. Nanofluids have been well-thoughtout for applications as heat transfer fluids for virtually twofold decades. In this article, a brief outline has been accessible to allocate the unique features of nanofluids, their promising synthetic ways, and different thermal conductivity enhancement levels of heat transfer by nanofluid.
