Abstract:

Nanofluid is a new type of heat transfer fluid with superior thermal performance characteristics, which is very promising for thermal engineering applications. In this study, effect of adding nanoparticles to the base fluid (water) in radiator for the purpose of increasing the heat transfer rate. By means of this, thermal efficiency can be improved, then reduction in fuel consumption and decrease in the pollutant emissions. And the thermo-physical properties of nanoparticles are thermal conductivity, specific heat, density, viscosity it can be measured at different volume concentration at various temperature ranges.
