Heat transfer fluid with low thermal conductivity limits the efficiency of thermal systems, such as heat exchangers, which require heat transfer fluid with high thermal conductivity. There is a demand to synthesize heat transfer fluids with high thermal conductivity. The emergence of nanoparticles h...
