摘要
Although various conjectures have been proposed to explain the abnormal increase in thermal conductivity of nanofluids, the detailed mechanism has not been fully understood and explained. The main reason is due to the lack of knowledge of the most fundamental factor governing the mechanisms such as Brownian motion, liquid layering, phonon transport, surface chemical effects, and agglomeration. Applying a surface complexation model for the measurement data of hydrodynamic size, potential, and thermal conductivity, we have shown that surface charge states are mainly responsible for the increase in the present condition and may be the factor incorporating all the mechanisms as well.
