Abstract

In the present paper a critical literature review of nanofluid thermal conductivity and viscosity is performed. Experimental studies are discussed in terms of the effects of some parameters such as particle volume fraction, particle size, and temperature on thermal conductivity and viscosity of nanofluids. Theoretical models are explained, model predictions are compared with experimental data and discrepancies are indicated.
