ABSTRACT
Nanofluids are quasi single phase medium containing stable colloidal dispersion of
ultrafine or nanometric metallic or ceramic particles in a given fluid. Nanofluids possess
immense potential of application to improve heat transfer and energy efficiency in several areas
including vehicular cooling in transportation, power generation, defense, nuclear, space,
microelectronics and biomedical devices. In the present contribution, a brief overview has been
presented to provide an update on the historical evolution of this concept, possible synthesis
routes, level of improvements reported, theoretical understanding of the possible mechanism of
heat conduction by nanofluid and scopes of application. According to this review, the future
developments of these technologies are discussed. In order to put the nanofluid heat transfer
technologies into practice, fundamental studies are greatly needed to understand the physical
mechanisms.
KEY WORDS:NanoFluids, Nano particles, Heat transfer enhancement, Applications of Nanofluids.
iNTRODUCTION
Nanofluids are a new class of fluids engineered by dispersing nanometer-sized materials (nanoparticles,
nanofibers, nanotubes, nanowires, nanorods, nanosheet, or droplets) in base fluids. Common base fluids include
water, organic liquids (e.g. ethylene, tri-ethylene-glycols, refrigerants, etc.), oils and lubricants, bio-fluids,
polymeric solutions and other common liquids. Materials commonly used as nanoparticles include chemically stable
metals (e.g. gold, copper), metal oxides (e.g., alumina, silica, zirconia, titania), oxide ceramics (e.g. Al2O3, CuO),
metal carbides (e.g. SiC), carbon in various forms (e.g., diamond, graphite, carbon nanotubes, fullerene) and
functionalized nanoparticles. Much attention has been paid in the past decade to this new type of composite material

because of its enhanced properties and behavior associated with heat transfer , mass transfer, wetting and spreading
and antimicrobial activities and the number of publications related to nanofluids increases in an exponential manner.
In this paper, experimental and theoretical studies are reviewed for nanofluid thermal conductivity and heat transfer
enhancement. Specifically, comparisons between thermal measurement techniques and optical measurement
techniques are discussed. Researchers have also tried to increase the thermal conductivity of base fluids by
suspending micro or larger-sized solid particles in fluids since the thermal conductivity of solid is typically higher
than that of liquids, seen from Table 1.
In this review paper, the recent trends on nanofluid heat transfer technologies and their applications are
comprehensively reviewed. Through this review, the future technology development and research requirements have
been identified.

Advanced Heat Transfer Enhancement Using Nano Fluids- An Overview 7
HEAT CONDUCTION MECHANISMS IN NANOFLUIDS
The four possible mechanisms in nano fluids which may contribute to thermal conduction.
(i) Brownian motion of Nano particles.
(ii) Liquid layering at the liquid/particle interface.
(iii) Ballistic nature of heat transport in nanoparticles.
(iv) Nano particle clustering in Nano fluids.
The Brownian motion of Nano particles is too slow to directly transfer heat through a nanofluid; however, it could
have an indirect role to produce a convection like micro environment around the Nano particles and particle
clustering to increase the heat transfer. This mechanism works well only when the particle clustering has both the
positive and negative effects of thermal conductivity. The presence of an ordered interfacial liquid molecule layer is
responsible for the increase in thermal conductivity.
SYNTHESIS AND PREPARATION METHODS FOR NANOFLUIDS
Preparation of nanofluids is the first key step in experimental studies with nanofluids. Nanofluids are not
just dispersion of solid particles in a fluid. The essential requirements that a nanofluid must fulfill are even and
stable suspension, negligible agglomeration of particles, no chemical change of the particles or fluid, etc. Nanofluids
are produced by dispersing Nano meter scale solid particles into base liquids such as water, ethylene glycol, oil, etc.
In the synthesis of nanofluids, agglomeration is a major problem. There are mainly two techniques used to produce
nanofluids: the single-step and the two-step techniques.
TWO STEP TECHNIQUE
Two-step method is the most widely used method for preparing nanofluids. Nanoparticles, nanofibers,
nanotubes, or other nanomaterials used in this method are first produced as dry powders by chemical or physical
methods. Then, the nanosized powder will be dispersed into a fluid in the second processing step with the help of
intensive magnetic force agitation, ultrasonic agitation, high-shear mixing, homogenizing, and ball milling. Two-
step method is the most economic method to produce nanofluids in large scale, because nanopowder synthesis
techniques have already been scaled up to industrial production levels. Due to the high surface area and surface
activity, nanoparticles have the tendency to aggregate. The important technique to enhance the stability of
nanoparticles in fluids is the use of surfactants. However, the functionality of the surfactants under high temperature
is also a big concern, especially for high-temperature applications. Due to the difficulty in preparing stable
nanofluids by two-step method, several advanced techniques are developed to produce nanofluids, including one-
step method. In the following part, we will introduce one-step method in detail.

SINGLE STEP TECHNIQUE
The single step simultaneously makes and disperses the nanoparticles directly into a base fluid; best for
metallic nanofluids. Single-disperses. Various methods have been tried to produce different kinds of nanoparticles
and nano suspensions.The initial materials tried for nanofluids were oxide particles, primarily because they were
easy to produce and chemically stable in solution. Various investigators have produced Al2O3 and CuO
nanopowder by an inertgas condensation process and found to be 2200 nm-sized particles. The major problem
with this method is its tendency to form agglomerates and its unsuitability to produce pure metallic nanopowders.
The problem of agglomeration can be reduced to a good extent by using a direct evaporation condensation method.
EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES
The published data of the thermal conductivity of nanofluids are mostly obtained at room temperature with
two methods, namely the hot-wire method and the conventional heat conduction cell method.. The 3 w method is
relatively new and accurate, and uses a metal wire suspended in nanofluids. The wire acts as both a heater and a
thermometer. A sinusoidal current at frequency is passed through the metal wire and generates a heat wave at
frequency 2 w. The temperature rise at frequency 2 w in the metal wire can be deduced by the voltage component at
frequency 3 w. The thermal conductivity of the fluid is determined by the slope of the 2 w temperature rise of the
metal wire. Fig. 1 summarises the room temperature data from our own work (Wen and Ding 2004a, 2004b, 2005a,
2005b, 2006; Ding et al. 2006; He et al. 2007) and those reported in the literature (Lee et al. 1999; Eastman et al.
2001; Choi et al. 2001; Xie et al. 2002a & 2002b; Biercuk et al. 2002; Das et al. 2003a; Patel et al. 2003; Kumar et
al. 2004; Assael et al 2004; Zhang X. et al. 2007). The data shown in Fig. 1 include aqueous, ethylene glycol,minerals oil and polymerbased composite materials and are classified according to the material type of
nanoparticles. One can see a significant degree of data scattering. In spite of the scatter, the presence of
nanoparticles in fluids can substantially enhance the thermal conductivity and the extent of enhancement depends on
the nanoparticle material type and volume fraction.

TRANSIENT HOT-WIRE METHOD (THW)
THW method is the most widely used static, linear source experimental technique for measuring the
thermal conductivity of fluids. A hot wire is placed in the fluid, which functions as both a heat source and a
thermometer. Based on Fouriers law, when heating the wire, a higher thermal conductivity of the fluid corresponds
to a lower temperature rise. The relationship between thermal conductivity knfand measured temperature T using the
THW method is summarized as follows . Assuming a thin, infinitely long line source dissipating heat into a fluid
reservoir, the energy equation in cylindrical coordinates can be written as:
with initial condition and boundary conditions
T(t = 0) = T0 (2a)
and
The analytic solution reads:
where g = 0.5772 is Eulers constant. Hence, if the temperature of the hot wire at time t1 and t2 are T1 and
T2, then by neglecting higher-order terms the thermal conductivity can be approximated as:
For the experimental procedure, the wire is heated via a constant electric power supply at step time t. A
temperature increase of the wire is determined from its change in resistance which can be measured in time using a
Wheatstone-bridge circuit. Then the thermal conductivity is determined from Eq. 4, knowing the heating power (or
heat flux q) and the slope of the curve ln(t) versus T. The advantages of THW method are low cost and easy
implementation. However, the assumptions of an infinite wire-length and the ambient acting like a reservoir (see
Eqs. 1 and 2c) may introduce errors. In addition, nanoparticle interactions, sedimentation and/or aggregation as well
as natural convection during extended measurement times may also increase experimental uncertainties.

THE ROLE OF BROWNIAN MOTION
The Brownian motion of nanoparticles could contribute to the thermal conduction enhancement through
two ways, a direct contribution due to motion of nanoparticles that transport heat, and an indirect contribution due to
micro-convection of fluid surrounding individual nanoparticles. The direct contribution of Brownian motion has
been shown theoretically to be negligible as the time scale of the Brownian motion is about 2 orders of magnitude
larger than that for the thermal diffusion of the base liquid. The indirect contribution has also been shown to play a
minute role by theoretical analysis. Furthermore, nanoparticles are often in the form of agglomerates and/or
aggregates. The Brownian motion should therefore play an even less significant role. In the following text, further
experimental evidence of the minor role of the Brownian motion is presented. Fig. 4.2 shows the thermal
conductivity enhancement as a function of temperature for nanofluids made of three types of metal-oxide
nanoparticles.The thermal conductivity enhancement is a very weak function of temperature. The weak temperaturedependence suggests that the Brownian motion of nanoparticles is not a dominant mechanism of the enhanced
thermal conductivity of nanofluids under the conditions of this work. Fig. 4.3 shows the results of alumina
nanofluids made from three base liquids with very different viscosities. No clear trend in the dependence of the
thermal conductivity enhancement on the base liquid viscosity again suggests the minor role of the Brownian
motion.

DISCUSSIONS ON NANOFLUID HEAT`TRANSFER TECHNOLOGIES AND THEIRAPPLICATIONS
Thermo-physical and transport properties of nanofluids are very important in nanofluid heat transfer
technologies on single- and two-phase flow (boiling, flow boiling and condensation). So far, most studies on
nanofluid thermal properties have focused on thermal conductivity and limited studies have concerned viscosity. For
single-phase convective heat transfer, it is clear that single-phase heat transfer coefficient can be enhanced by
nanofluid due to its higher thermal conductivity compared to the base fluid. It should also be noted that the viscosity
of a nanofluid is generally higher than that of the base fluid. Therefore, frictional pressure drops of single phase flow
of nanofluid are generally higher than those of the base fluid.

HEAT TRANSFER INTENSIFICATION
Since the origination of the nanofluid concept about a decade ago, the potentials of nanofluids in heat
transfer applications have attracted more and more attention. Up to now, there are some review papers which present
overviews of various aspects of nanofluids including preparation and characterization, techniques for the
measurements of thermal conductivity, theory and model, thermo physical properties, and convective heat transfer.
Our group studied the thermal conductivities of ethylene glycol- (EG-) based nanofluids containing oxides including
MgO, TiO2, ZnO, Al2 O3, and SiO2 nanoparticles and the results demonstrated that MgO-EG nanofluid was found
to have superior features with the highest thermal conductivity and lowest viscosity. In this part, we will summarize
the applications of nanofluids in heat transfer enhancement.
INDUSTRIAL COOLING APPLICATIONS
The application of nanofluids in industrial cooling will result in great energy savings and emissions
reductions. For US industry, the replacement of cooling and heating water with nanofluids has the potential to
conserve 1 trillion Btu of energy. For the US electric power industry, using nanofluids in closed loop cooling cycles
could save about 1030 trillion Btu per year (equivalent to the annual energy consumption of about 50,000150,000

households). The associated emissions reductions would be approximately 5.6 million metric tons of carbon dioxide,
8,600 metric tons of nitrogen oxides, and 21,000 metric tons of sulfur dioxide . Experiments were performed using a
flow-loop apparatus to explore the performance of polyalphaolefin nanofluids containing exfoliated graphite
nanoparticle fibers in cooling . It was observed that the specific heat of nanofluids was found to be 50% higher for
nanofluids compared with polyalphaolefin, and it increased with temperature. The thermal diffusivity was found to
be 4 times higher for nanofluids. The convective heat transfer was enhanced by 10% using nanofluids compared
with using polyalphaolefin. Ma et al. proposed the concept of nanoliquid-metal fluid, aiming to establish an
engineering route to make the highest conductive coolant with about several dozen times larger thermal conductivity
than that of water . The liquid metal with low melting point is expected to be an idealistic base fluid for making
superconductive solution, which may lead to the ultimate coolant in a wide variety of heat transfer enhancement
area. The thermal conductivity of the liquid metal fluid can be enhanced through the addition of more conductive
nanoparticles.
MECHANICAL APPLICATIONS.
Why nanofluids have great friction reduction properties? Nanoparticles in nanofluids form a protective
film with low hardness and elastic modulus on the worn surface can be considered as the main reason that some
nanofluids exhibit excellent lubricating properties. Magnetic fluids are kinds of special nanofluids. Magnetic liquid
rotary seals operate with no maintenance and extremely low leakage in a very wide range of applications, and it
utilizing the property magnetic properties of the magnetic nanoparticles in liquid.

CONCLUSIONS
Nanofluids, i.e., well-dispersed metallic nanoparticles at low volume fractions in liquids, enhance the
mixtures thermal conductivity over the base-fluid values. Thus, they are potentially useful for advanced cooling of
micro-systems. This paper presents an overview of the recent developments in the study of nanofluids, including the
preparation methods, the evaluation methods for their stability, the ways to enhance their stability, the stability
mechanisms, and their potential applications in heat transfer intensification, mass transfer enhancement, energy
fields, mechanical fields and so for. The performance of nanofluid critically depends upon the size, quantity (volume
percentage), shape and distribution of dispersoids, and their ability to remain suspended and chemically un-reacted
in the fluid.
In summary, the future scope in the nanofluid research cycle are to concentrated on heat transfer
enhancements and determine its physical mechanisms, taking into consideration such items as the optimum particle
size and shape, particle volume concentration, fluid additive, particle coating, and base fluid. Precise measurement
and documentation of the degree and scope of enhancement of thermal properties is extremely important. Better
characterization of nanofluids is also important for developing engineering designs based on the work of multiple
research groups, and fundamental theory to guide this effort should be improved. Finally, it is pertinent to suggest
that nanofluid research warrants a genuinely multidisciplinary approach with complementary efforts from material
scientists (regarding synthesis and characterization), thermal engineers (for measuring thermal conductivity and heat
transfer coefficient under various regimes and conditions), chemists (to study the agglomeration behavior and
stability of the dispersoid and liquid) and physicists (modeling the mechanism and interpretation of results).
