Thermal Transport Characteristics of Nanofluids and Phase Change Materials

This book provides detailed information related to nanofluids, synthesis and preparation, morphologies of nanoparticles, selection of base fluids, thermophysical properties of nanofluids, and benefits of micro and mini channels. Advantages of various conduits, improvement of heat transfer performances of phase change materials (PCMs) and base PCMs for various applications is discussed as well. Crucial difficulties like stability, aggregation, and clogging of nanoparticles are detailed including factors like size, shape, motion of nanoparticles that influence the heat transfer performance of nanofluids. Challenges, applications, and scope of the future works in the subject area is included--
