description | The effects of temperature and low particle volume concentration on the dynamic visosity of the
Ah03/water and Ah03lEG/water-based nanofluids are investigated. Measurements of the nanofluid viscositres
were accomplished using Brookfield viscometer (DV-II + Pro Programmable Viscometer) with a tempera~re
controlled bath, supplied by Brookfield engineering laboratories of Malaysia. Viscosity of the stud led
nanofluids are strongly depended on the Ah03 particle volume fractions in the base fluid. Data were collected
for temperatures ranging from 25 to 80°C. The presence of aggregated Ah03 nanoparticles in the fluid, with
average diameter of 109nm, which is -8 times the primary diameter (13nm) of Ah03 nanoparticles, have been
confirmed by Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) data. The results clearly showed the presence of a critical
temperature, beyond which the particle suspension properties were noticed to be radically changed, which
result in activating the hysteresis phenomenon. The hysteresis phenomenon on viscosity measurement, which
IS believed to be the first observed for EG/water-based nanofluids, has raised serious concerns regarding the use
of nanofluids for heat transfer enhancement purposes. |
