Abstract
⺠Nano-Ag dispersed water based nanofluids (NFs) are synthesized by one-step method. ⺠Concentration and size of Ag nanoparticles (NPs) are main variables. ⺠Microstructure (of NPs) and thermal conductivity (k) of NFs are characterized. ⺠A maximum 21% enhancement in k at 0.001 M concentration and 55 nm size is noted. ⺠Brownian motion and clustering of nanoparticles closely predict experimental data.
