Question: ( 9 ) A nanofluid ( nf ) contains a mixture of water as a base fluid ( bf ) and A l 2 O

(9) A nanofluid ( nf ) contains a mixture of water as a base fluid ( bf ) and Al2O3 as a nanoparticle (p).
Determine the values of knf,nf,nf,cnp,nf, and nf at a temperature of 300 K and a particle
volume fraction () of 0.05.
The thermophysical properties of the particles are knp=36WmK,np=3970kgm3, and
cp,np=0.765kJkgK and water are kbf=0.613WmK,bf=997kgm3,cp,bf=4.179kJkgK,
and bf=85510-6Nsm2. Comment on your results.
[Ans: k=0.705Wm-K,=1146kgm3,cp=3.587kJkgK]
