  Heat Transfer Performance of ZnO- Ethylene Glycol- Water Nanofluid Using Thermal Lens Technique

  By Ramya M, Ashik Wilson, Swathy Satheesh, Anita Mary Peter, Syammohan V, Kailasnath M

  Abstract: Nanofluids are engineered fluids used in advanced electronic systems for thermal management. Fluids with dispersed nanoparticles have exhibited remarkable thermal properties. Ethylene glycol (EG) and water mixtures are widely used in many industrial areas. This study investigates the synthesis and heat transfer performance of ZnO-EG, ZnO-water, and ZnO-EG-water nanofluids using a dual-beam thermal lens technique. ZnO is a widely used inorganic, UV-absorbing, multifunctional semiconducting material with applications in various fields …

  A Study on Solvent Interaction and Thermal Transport of β-Carotene

  By Ramya M, Bhavya Pramod, Navya Pramod, Akshaya Muralidharan, Anita Mary Peter, Kailasnath M

  Abstract: β-carotene, a prominent compound of carrot pigments having a non-polar nature consisting of conjugated double bonds, plays a vital role in human health as a biological antioxidant and a precursor of vitamin A. In addition, it is also responsible for being a multicolored agent in various plant species and extensively employed in food colorants. This has centered attention on β-carotene nowadays. For the extraction of β-carotene, we used the most …
