Page 4: FYP presentation Aslam

Nanoparticles• Particles sized between 1nm – 100nm

• Can be synthesis in many ways eg., miling method.

• Common nanoparticles are aluminum oxide, zinc oxide, copper oxide

• This experiment : silver oxide

Base fluids

5

• Can be categorized as organic and inorganic

• Common base fluids used in heat transfer application eg., ethylene glycol, oil (organic)

• Inorganic base fluids eg., water

• This experiment : sodium chloride

Nanofluids

6

• Nanoparticles dispersed in base fluids form nanofluids

• 2 type of preparation :I. One-step methodii. Two-step method

• This experiment : two-step method

Page 7: FYP presentation Aslam

Problem Statement

• No general equation can predict the nanofluids heat transfer characteristic.

• Lack of research on nanofluids using inorganic base fluids besides water.

Results and discussion

19

• Effect of temperature and volume fraction on thermal conductivity

• Enhancement of thermal conductivity

• Effect of temperature and volume fraction on viscosity

• pH of different volume fraction at different temperature

Page 21: FYP presentation Aslam

Effect of temperature and volume fraction on thermal conductivity

21

• From graph:Volume fraction increase, thermal conductivity increaseTemperature increase, thermal conductivity increase

• Increase probably is due to the increase of Brownian motion

Page 22: FYP presentation Aslam

Enhancement of thermal conductivity

22

Page 23: FYP presentation Aslam

Enhancement of thermal conductivity

23

• From graph: Highest enhancement of nanofluids of

192.3% is observed at temperature 61.13 degree celcius using 0.5% volume fraction.

• Overall silver nanofluids display good thermal properties

Page 25: FYP presentation Aslam

Effect of volume fraction and temperature on viscosity

25

• From graph:Volume fraction increase, viscosity increaseTemperature increase, decrease

• Viscosity is a measure of molecular attraction

• Temperature increase, molecular attraction decrease.

• Volume fraction increase, molecular attraction increase.

Page 26: FYP presentation Aslam

pH of different volume fraction at different temperature

26

Page 27: FYP presentation Aslam

pH of different volume fraction at different temperature

• There is a slight increase of pH with increase of temperature and slight decrease of pH with increase of volume fraction

• pH is close to 7 so the nanofluids formed is neutral

27

Page 28: FYP presentation Aslam

Conclusion

• Increase in temperature will increase the thermal conductivity of nanofluids, reduce the viscosity of nanofluids and there is only slight increase in pH nanofluids.

• Increase in volume fraction will increase the thermal conductivity of nanofluids, increase viscosity of nanofluids and reduce pH of nanofluids.
