the present work deals with the synthesis and characterization of cds nanoparticles with good thermal stability and optical properties by a novel and simple synthetic route. the nanoparticles were synthesized via chemical precipitation method in a single reaction vessel under ambient conditions. the prepared cds nanoparticles were compared with the bulk cds. the optical properties were determin...

Cooling is one of the most important challenges in industries, especially in the automotive industry. The coolant which is used in engine radiators possesses lower thermal conductivity. To enhance the thermal properties, coolant was dispersed in nano-sized particles and the fluid is called as Nanofluid. In this Study, Silica Nanoparticle was dispersed in Paraflu Engine coolant usin...

In the present work, we report the synthesis of binary nano metal oxides such as Zinc /Copper Oxide via novel dry synthetic methods such as thermal decomposition of oxalate precursor. The synthesis route involves facile solid-phase mechanochemical activation of a physical mixture of simple copper/zinc salts and oxalic acid, followed by calcination of the as-ground oxalate precursors at 450◦C. X...

B1-xLaxFeO3 (x = 0.0, 0.025) crystallites were prepared by chemical solution route. XRD analysis confirmed the phase formation of the materials. Thermal characterization was done by DSC-TGA to confirm crystallization and thermal behavior for phase development. Morphological studies by FESEM showed the agglomerated nature of the ferrite...

Effective heat removal from the IC chip, through the package, to the adjacent environment is crucial to maintain an allowable device junction temperature. The latter directly affects the electrical circuit performance both at the component and system levels. Aside from thermal enhancement of individual packages by the IC manufacturers, proper printed circuit board (PCB) layout and cabinet desig...
