Title

Role of Brownian motion and Thermophoresis in the improvement of thermal conductivity of nanofluids – A precise review

Abstract

The thermophysical properties such as dynamic viscosity, thermal conductivity, specific heat, etc., of a nanofluids, having the uniform suspension of solid particles of nanosized and based fluid as a component, depends on the various parameters. The primary reason to use nanofluids is the improvement in the thermal conductivity of the working fluid in the heat transfer processes. Different parameters affect the variation in thermal conductivity, such as Brownian motion, nanolayer, thermophoresis, size and concentration of nanoparticles. The present study provides a very precise review on the theoretical models predicting the improvement in the thermal conductivity of the working fluid due to the suspension of solid nanoparticles as a function of the Brownian motion and thermophoresis mechanisms. It follows that the Brownian motion contributes in the improvement of the thermal conductivity of nanofluid, while a very small effect of thermophoresis was found with the observation that thermophoresis effect was not a function of the nanoparticle size.

Key Words

Nanofluid, thermal conductivity, Brownian motion, thermophoresis.
