Abstract

Nanofluids are advanced class of heat transfer fluids that are in trend due to their high thermophysical properties over the past two decades. However, there are some limitations and restrictions that are needed to be removed before nanofluids can be commercialized. The main issues are the low stability and shelf life of such fluids which mask the potential usage of nanofluids in applications such as oil recovery, heat exchangers, drug delivery and lubricant. Hence, challenging task of stabilizing the nanofluid is key concern in capitalizing the nanofluids. In this study, the aim is to explore the previous literature related to stability and thermophysical properties of nanofluid for better understanding.

摘要

纳米流体是一类先进的传热流体，由于其在过去二十年中的高热物理特性而成为趋势。然而，在纳米流体商业化之前，需要消除一些限制和限制。主要问题是此类流体的低稳定性和保质期，这掩盖了纳米流体在采油、热交换器、药物输送和润滑剂等应用中的潜在用途。因此，稳定纳米流体的挑战性任务是利用纳米流体的关键问题。在这项研究中，目的是探索以前与纳米流体的稳定性和热物理性质相关的文献，以便更好地理解。
