in this study, a model for estimating the nfs thermal conductivity by using a gmdh-pnn has been investigated. nfs thermal conductivity was modeled as a function of the nanoparticle size, temperature, nanoparticle volume fraction and the thermal conductivity of the base fluid and nanoparticles. for this purpose, the developed network contains 8 layers with 2 inputs in each layer and also trainin...

Statistical methods, and especially machine learning, have been increasingly used in nanofluid modeling. This paper presents some of the interesting and applicable methods for thermal conductivity prediction and compares them with each other according to results and errors that are defined. The thermal conductivity of nanofluids increases with the volume fraction and temperature. Machine learni...

A critical synthesis of the variants within the thermophysical properties of nanofluids is presented in this work. The experimental results for the effective thermal conductivity and viscosity reported by several authors are in disagreement. Theoretical and experimental studies are essential to clarify the discrepancies in the results and in proper understanding of heat transfer enhancement cha...

In this experiment, κ, the thermal conductivity of a rod of brass, was measured by periodically heating one end of the rod. Turning the heater attached to the rod on and off with a 10 mHz square wave signal, waves of heat were sent along the length of the rod, measured by two thermistors a distance ∆x apart. Taking these temperatures as a function of time, a Fourier transform was applied to a 1...

The capability of a miniaturized probe to measure local cerebral blood flow in a continuous and quantitative manner is described. The incorporation of thermal conductivity measurements using the isothermal principle with the hydrogen clearance method allows calibration of the thermal conductivity component in absolute terms. Evaluation of this system in 14 cats showed a linear relationship betw...

polymethyl methacrylate (pmma), widely used as a prosthodontic base, has many disadvantages, including a high thermal expansion coefficient and low thermal conductivity, a low elasticity coefficient, low impact strength and low resistance to fatigue. this study aimed to make an in vitro comparison of the thermal conductivity, compressive strength, and tensile strength of the acrylic base of com...

in this study the thermal conductivity and the volumetric heat capacity of non-newtonian fluids are investigated. these fluids find many applications in chemical, medical and food industries. they mostly have viscoelastic behavior and generally differ from newtonian fluids. two non-newtonian fluids, solutions of xanthan and carboxy methyl cellulose in water with various concentrations have bee...

Accretion flows onto underluminous black holes, such as Sagittarius A* at the center of our galaxy, are dilute (mildly collisional to highly collisionless), optically thin, and radiatively inefficient. Therefore, the accretion properties of such dilute flows are expected to be modified by their large viscosities and thermal conductivities. Second, turbulence within these systems needs to transp...

We report on the thermal conductivity measurement of Ge quantum dot superlattices. The samples used were grown using molecular beam epitaxy. The typical dot sizes were determined by transmission electron microscopy measurements to be 75 nm in base and 7 nm in height. A differential 3o method was employed to characterize the thermal conductivity of the samples. At room temperature, thermal condu...
