dc.descriptionThis paper was presented at the 2nd Micro and Nano Flows Conference (MNF2009), which was held at Brunel University, West London, UK. The conference was organised by Brunel University and supported by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, IPEM, the Italian Union of Thermofluid dynamics, the Process Intensification Network, HEXAG - the Heat Exchange Action Group and the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications.en_US
dc.description.abstractThe purpose of the present work was to study the momentum and energy transport processes in nanofluids by the molecular dynamics (MD) method. The MD-simulation results were compared with known formulae and experimental data. Unlike for suspensions with Brownian and other macroscopic particles, the viscosity and thermal conductivity of nanofluids were found to depend not only on the volume fraction of nanoparticles but also on the mass and radius of nanoparticles. The possible mechanisms of the nanoparticle effect on the transport coefficients of nanofluids are discussed.en_US
