Experimental Investigation and Development of New Correlation for Thermal Conductivity and Viscosity of BioGlycol/water based SiO2 Nanofluids

Nanofluids are a new class of engineered heat transfer fluids which exhibit superior thermophysical properties and have potential applications in numerous important fields. In this study, nanofluids have been prepared by dispersing SiO2 nanoparticles in different base fluids such as 20:80% and 30:70...
