摘要：

A differential effective medium theory together with Brownian motion is used to predict Effective Thermal Conductivity (ETC) of CNT nanofluids. ETC was influenced significantly by Brownian motion and enhancement was higher in dilute nanofluids. A theoretical model employing an effective volume fraction with dispersibility factor agrees well with experimental data. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
