Effects of SiO2 nanoparticles on pool boiling heat transfer characteristics of water based nanofluids in a cylindrical vessel

Description: Amorphous SiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized and added into water to formulate stable nanofluids. And the effect of nanoparticles on boiling heat transfer was experimentally investigated. The critical heat flux of nanofluids was enhanced by up to 68.8%.166
