Investigation of Al2O3 Nanofluid Viscosity for Different Water/EG Mixture Based

Viscosity of Al2O3 nanoparticle dispersed in mixture of water and ethylene glycol (EG) were investigated experimentally. The effect of based fluid ratio (water:EG) to nanofluid viscosity was investigated. Nanofluids with volume concentration up to 2.0 % were prepared with 13 nm Al2O3 nanoparticles...
