摘要
Carbon multi-walled nanotubes (C-MWNTs) and alternatively carbon double-walled nanotubes (C-DWNTs) were added in water, following our previous work, in order to enhance the thermal conductivity of this traditional heat transfer fluid. Hexadecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) and Nanosperse AQ were employed as dispersants. The transient hot-wire technique was used for the measurement of the thermal conductivity with an instrument built for this purpose. The absolute uncertainty is better than 2%. The maximum thermal conductivity enhancement obtained was 34% for a 0.6% volume C-MWNT suspension in water with CTAB. All measurements were made at ambient temperature. In an attempt to evaluate and explain the experimental results, information about the microstructure of the suspensions is needed. The findings of these investigations are presented here along with the analysis.
