Empirical correlation finding the role of temperature and particle size for nanofluid (Al2O3) thermal conductivity enhancement

Chon, Chan Hee, Kihm, Kenneth D., Lee, Shin Pyo, Choi, Stephen U. S.·2005·Applied Physics Letters

Abstract

In this letter, we report an experimental correlation [Eqs. (1a) and (1b) or (1c)] for the thermal conductivity of Al2O3 nanofluids as a function of nanoparticle size (ranging from 11nmto150nm nominal diameters) over a wide range of temperature (from 21to71°C). Following the previously proposed conjecture from the theoretical point-of-view (Jang and Choi, 2004), it is experimentally validated that the Brownian motion of nanoparticles constitutes a key mechanism of the thermal conductivity enhancement with increasing temperature and decreasing nanoparticle sizes.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
