Abstract

the recent advance in research has made it possible to produce nanometer-sizes particles. Innovative nanometer-sized solid particles is dispersed in heat transfer fluids are called ‘nanofluids’. These dispersed nanoparticles can transform the transport and thermal behavior of the base fluid. Normally metal has high thermal conductivity then base fluid, so nanofluid definitely have much thermal conductivity then conventional heat transfer fluid. Recently, as an innovative nanoparticles have been used in conventional heat transfer fluids. Our work is to increase the thermal conductivity of fluids with water and ethylene glycol are as base fluid and particles of Al2O3 and CuO are as suspension material. The aim of this review is to find the high thermal conductivity nanofluid for heat transfer application.
