Nanofluids are new kinds of fluids engineered by dispersing nanoparticles in base fluids. This report presents an experimental investigation of thermophysical properties of Al2O3 nanofluids. Al2O3 nanofluids were prepared by adding surfactant and undergoing ultrasonication. After which, the thermal...
