  By Hamidreza Ghasemi Bahraseman, Taha Ghasemi Bahraseman, Hamidreza Nouri, Chi May Bahraseman, Patricia Petel, Mong Lam, Justin Skolek, Morteza Mohssenzadeh

  Abstract: Aluminum oxide nanofluids are enhanced heat transfer fluids that utilize the thermal conductivity of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) nanoparticles suspended within a base fluid. As technology advances, more efficient high heat flux solutions are required to manage the higher concentration of power in smaller designs. In this review paper, data from multiple experiments pertaining to the thermal conductivity of Al2O3 nanofluids will be presented. Information is compiled from peer reviewed and …

  Abstract: This experimental investigation is aimed at establishing the ability of nanofluids formula from a mixture of nanoparticles and oil extracted from Irvingia gabonensis (bush mango) in enhancing recovery from oil reservoir. The laboratory study involved the use of core flooding unit, crude oil, brine, nano-particles and Irvingia gabonensis. In this study, nanofluids formulated from nanoparticles of aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 ) and zinc oxide (ZnO) respectively were used …
