NANOFLUID AND NANOTECHNOLOGY
• Nano word is originated from Latin word, which means dwarf.
• 'Nano' is a prefix used to describe 'one billionth’.
• Nano fluid is derived from two words that is,
NANOFLUIDS = NANOPARTICLE + BASEFLUID
• Nano fluid is the colloidal suspension solution of nanoparticle
and base fluid.
• Nano fluid has greater thermal properties in comparison to
base fluid.
• In 1974, Norio Taniguchi invented the term 'nanotechnology'
to describe extra-high precision and ultra-fine dimensions.
• Concept behind it, thermo fluids in heat exchangers
for enhancement of heat transfer coefficient.
TPYES OF NANOPARTICLES
At present nanoparticles are classified into three groups;
• One Dimension (1D) nanoparticles
One dimensional system (thin film or manufactured surfaces)
has been used in the field of solar cells offering.
• Two Dimensional (2D) nanoparticles
Carbon nanotubes
• Three Dimensional (3D) nanoparticles
Fullerenes (Carbon 60)
TYPES OF NANOFLUID
Nano fluids may be classified on the basis
of the nano particles suspended and the base fluid
used.
1 – on the basis of nano particle –
(a)– metallic nano fluid (e.g. Al, Cu, Ni)
(b)- Non – metallic nano fluid (e.g. Ceo2 , CuO)
2- on the basis of fluid used –
(a)- ethylene glycol
(b) - Water
CERIUM OXIDE NANOPARTICLE
Cerium(iv) oxide, also known as ceric oxide or ceria is an oxide of the rare earth metal
cerium.
• It is a pale yellow white powder with the chemical formula CeO2.
• The cerium oxide nanoparticles are of an average size -10-30nm.
• It is insoluble in water and its crystal structure is cubic (fluorite).
• It has density of magnitude 7215 kg/m³.
• Its boiling and melting point 3500 and 2400 °C
SYNTHESIS OF NANOFLUID
Synthesis of nanofluids carried out by mixing nanoparticles with fluids, There are
fundamental methods to obtain nanofluids -:
• Single step method
• Double step method
• Gas condensation
• Ion Implementation
• Ball mill dispersion
• Chemical vapour condensation
• Single step method
Used makes and disperses the nanoparticles straight into a conventional base fluid
best for metallic nanofluids. The preliminary materials tried for nanofluids were
oxide particles, primarily because they were easy to produce and chemically
stable in solution.
• Double step method
Two-step technique is the most cost-effective method to generate nanofluids in big
scale. Nanoparticles, nanotubes, nanofibers and other non material’s used in
this technique are first formed as dry powders by physical and chemical
methods.
• Gas Condensation
Used to make nanoparticles from metals with low melting points. In this method
the solid along with the liquid is fed into a colloidal mill.
• Ion Implementation
Used in semiconductor device fabrication and in metal finishing, as well as in
materials science research. Ion implantation cause also chemical and physical
changes when the ions impinge on the target at high energy.
• Ball Mill Dispersion
It is a way of modifying the conditions in which chemical reactions usually take
place either by changing the reactivity. The ball milling was per from for two hours
at constant milling speed of 250 rpm under controlled atmosphere. The
characterization is ferformed analyzer for mapping elemental and line
analysis.
• Chemical Vapour Condensation
Used to deposit thin solid films on surfaces. This method has tremendous
flexibility in producing a wide range of materials, The precursors can be solid,
liquid or gas at ambient conditions, but are delivered to the reactor as a
vapour.
EXPERIMENTATION
• Nanoparticles are used as additives to modify heat transfer fluids to improve
their performance.
• Thermal Conductivity is the property of a material with the purpose of indicates
its capacity to conduct heat.
• Thermal conductivity of CeO2/water nanofluid was measured by using a KD2
Pro thermal property analyzer.
 Thermal conductivity measurement assumes;
1. long heat basis can be treated as an infinitely long heat source.
2. the medium is both homogeneous and isotropic, and at standardized initial
temperature.
• Prepared nanofluids give the better thermal conductivity value of 0.681W/m K
at 0.3% as compared to base fluid.
Steps:
• The KD2’s sensor needle contains both a heating ingredient and a thermistor.
• To measure the thermal conductivity of fluids, sensor needle can be used in the
range of 0.2–2 W/m K with an accuracy of ±5%. Each measurement cycle consists
of 90s. During the first 30s, the instrument will equilibrate which is then followed by
heating and cooling of sensor needle for 30s each.
• The calibration of the sensor needle was carried out thermal conductivity of
CeO2/Water.
• The standard values for distilled water is 0.58 W/m K. The calibration of the KD2
Pro sensor needle was carried out at room temperature (32◦C)
ENVIRONMENTAL AND HUMAN SAFETY ASPECTS
In recent years, due to the increased human capacity to make synthetic nanoparticles,
much attention has been focused on this type of material.
• Application of nanoparticles
Inorganic nanoparticles also are absorbed by the cells, e.g., zinc oxide can enter
bacteria. CeO2 nanoparticles can be absorbed by the cell wall of E. coli bacteria. The cell
walls of bacteria have adapted physiologically to the presence of fullerenes.
• Organic Colloids
The colloidal materials in natural waters include particles and macromolecules that
range in size from 1 nm to 1 µm. their exact composition and functions are still unclear.
• Soot
The processes of natural and artificial combustion that occur in mobile or fixed sources
emit particles with a wide range of sizes. all the carbon black particles in the range of
nanoparticles are specified by the term “soot.”
• fullerenes and carbon nanotubes
fullerenes and carbon nanotubes are considered to be engineered nanoparticles, natural
fullerenes and carbon nanotubes also exist in the environment.
• Natural and unintentionally-produced inorganic Nanoparticles (NP)
Mineral nanoparticles exist everywhere in the soil and in geological systems. Aerosols
that are present in the atmosphere also are considered to be nanoparticle.
• Engineered fullerenes and CNTs
Most fullerenes are used in polymeric composites, such as thin membranes, and in
electro-optical devices and biological applications.
• Engineered polymeric NP
Synthetic nanoparticles resulting from organic polymers have been used in
many applications in medicine as drug-delivery devices. Different types of these
nanoparticles have been studied regarding their ability to pass through brain-
blood barriers.
RESULT AND DISSCUSION
• DENSITY
The density or more precisely, the volumetric mass density, of a substance is
its mass per unit volume. The symbol most often used for density is ρ.
density= mass/volume
The SI unit of density is Kg/m3.
• VISCOSITY
Viscosity is a measure of a fluid’s resistance to flow. It describes the internal
friction of a moving fluid. A fluid with large viscosity resists motion because its
molecular makeup gives it a lot of internal friction.
Viscosity =Shear force/velocity gradient
μ=τdu /dy
The SI unit of viscosity, if equivalent to N-s/m2.
• THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY
Thermal conductivity is the property of material to conduct heat. It is evaluated
primarily in terms of fourier’s law for heat conduction.
In SI units, thermal conductivity is measured in W/m-K.
• SPECIFIC HEAT
The specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to rise the
temperature by 10 C. The relationship between heat and temperature change
is usually expressed in the form of specific heat (c).

    • Single stepmethod Used makes and disperses the nanoparticles straight into a conventional base fluid best for metallic nanofluids. The preliminary materials tried for nanofluids were oxide particles, primarily because they were easy to produce and chemically stable in solution. • Double step method Two-step technique is the most cost-effective method to generate nanofluids in big scale. Nanoparticles, nanotubes, nanofibers and other non material’s used in this technique are first formed as dry powders by physical and chemical methods. • Gas Condensation Used to make nanoparticles from metals with low melting points. In this method the solid along with the liquid is fed into a colloidal mill. • Ion Implementation Used in semiconductor device fabrication and in metal finishing, as well as in materials science research. Ion implantation cause also chemical and physical changes when the ions impinge on the target at high energy.
