Abstract
Nanofluids, suspending nano-particles of various materials, have a good heat transfer characteristics compared with pure base fluids. For the reason, nanofluids have been considered as one of the measure to improve energy efficiency, and studied to apply on a working fluid of a high performance heat exchanger. This study tested thermal conductivities of nanofluids applying diamond nano-powder on DI water, ethylene glycol, and ethyl alcohol. Nanofluids are fabricated by matrix synthetic method, and the volume percent of diamond nano-powder contained in the base fluid are 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, and 1vol%. As a result, thermal conductivities are enhanced with applying diamond nano-power. Especially, the conductivity is highly increased up to 23% at 1vol% nanofluid applying diamond nano-powder on DI water.
