摘要
In this work, an experimental investigation on the effects of temperature and concentration of nanoparticles on the viscosity of ZnO–MWCNTs/engine oil (SAE 10W40) hybrid nanolubricant is presented. The experiments were repeated at volume fractions of 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.4%, 0.6%, and 0.8%, temperature range of 5–55 °C, and shear rates from 666.5 to 13,330 s−1. The viscosity of hybrid nanolubricant was measured using the Brookfield digital viscometer (CAP2000). We found that the nanofluid has a Newtonian behavior at all volume fractions and temperatures. Also, by increasing the volume fraction of nanoparticles and nanotubes at a constant temperature the nanofluid viscosity is increased. Nanofluid viscosity decreases with increasing the temperature at a constant volume fraction.
