This dispersed Al2O3 nanoparticles from the range of 0.2 to 1.0% volume concentration with an average diameter of 13 nm into three volume percentages of water to ethylene glycol such as 60%:40%, 50%:50%, and 40%:60%. The heat transfer distribution of the hot blanks with nanocoolant and chilled water...
