Abstract:
Nanofluids based on a hybrid carbon nanomaterial consisting of individual formations, the central part of which is a diamond nanoparticle, and the peripheral part is carbon nanotubes, have been studied. It has been shown that the factor determining the thermal conductivity coefficient of a nanofluid is the volume fraction that nanoparticles make up. This has been proven for spherically symmetric nanoparticles. Estimates show that this property will also manifest itself to some extent for nanoparticles of other shapes.
