Thermophysical Properties Measurement of Nano Cellulose in Ethylene Glycol/Water

Nanofluids are the suspensions of solid nanoparticles in the liquids as base fluids. They have been the latest engineering material among the investigators as they exhibit promising enhanced thermal properties and many other possible developments. In this paper, experimental studies are conducted in...
