Evaluation of Silica Nanofluids in Static and Dynamic Conditions by an Optical Fiber Sensor

This work presents an optical fiber dynamic light scattering sensor capable of simultaneously assessing concentration and flow speed of nanofluids. Silica nanoparticles (189 nm) in water were tested, yielding a sensitivity of 0.78288 &#215; 10&#179; s<sup>&#8722;1</sup> for s...
