Abstract
The thermal conductivity of AlN/EG nanofluids was investigated by transient hot-wire method. Experimental results indicated that the thermal conductivity of AlN/EG nanofluids increase nearly linear with the increase of nanoparticles volume fraction, and the results can’t be predicted by conditional Maxwell model. The effect of temperature on effective thermal conductivity of AlN/EG nanofluids was investigated. Result indicated that the thermal conductivity of AlN/EG nanofluids increased with the increase of temperature.
