摘要：
The heat transfer and flow characteristics of silver (Ag) Ethylene glycol (EG) nanofluids, flowing through a tubular heat exchanger were experimentally investigated. The spherically shaped Ag nanoparticles of an average size of 10–65 nm were dispersed in EG in a 0.1–2.0 vol%. The test results reveal that the convective heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop of the Ag–EG nanofluids increased from 39.5 to 49 and 1.42 to 23.7 % respectively, with increased nanoparticles concentration.
