Abstract

In this article, the viscosity of two common nanofluids including Al2O3/water and TiO2/water is measured at high temperatures, and high concentrations of the nanofluids. The range of temperature is 15-60ฐC where the volume fraction of nanoparticles varies from 1 to 8%. Next, comparisons have been done with the most well-known theoretical and experimental reports in the literature. Finally, using the experimental data, a helpful correlation is presented. ฉ 2013 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.
