Nanofluid Thermal Conductivity - a thermo-mechanical, chemical structure and computational approach

Multiple papers have been published which attempt to predict the thermal conductivity or thermal diffusivity of graphite “nanofluids” 1–6. In each of the papers empirical methods (with no consideration of quantum mechanical principles or a structural reference) are employed in an attempt to understa...
