Abstract The Ga–Li system is very attractive for the development of microelectronic and Li-ion cell applications as negative electrodes. In this study, thermophysical properties such as density, surface tension, viscosity, thermal and electrical conductivity, and thermoelectric power were investigated. Taking into account the intermetallic compounds occurring in Ga–Li, the measurements were conducted in a temperature range of 323–773 K. The experimentally obtained results revealed lower density and surface tension with increasing Li additions. The viscosity, electrical conductivity and thermoelectric power slightly reduced with the addition of Li content to eutectic Ga–Sn–Zn. The opposite was true of thermal conductivity, which increased slightly. The performed Nusselt number and Peclet number calculations for eutectic Ga–Sn–Zn with Li additions show similar dependency as found in literature data for Ga and Ga–In alloys.

In this study, some structure-sensitive thermophysical properties, namely, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and thermoelectric power of liquid binary alloys Al33.3Mg66.7, Mg47.6Zn52.4 and Mg33.3Zn66.7 (all in wt.%), as the most promising cast alloys to fabricate components for cars, aircraft and other complex engineering products, were investigated. The electrical conductivity and thermoelectric power were measured in a wide temperature range by the four-point contact method. The thermal conductivity was measured by the steady-state concentric cylinder method. The obtained results are compared with literature experimental and calculated data.

The present keynote speech overviews new frontiers of sensing techniques for thermophysical properties in micro and nano-scale processes which are being developed at Keio. Especially, new optical sensing techniques to measure wide variety of thermophysical properties such as thermal diffusivity, thermal conductivity, viscosity, mass diffusion coefficient and surface tension of novel fluids and solids in micro and nano-scale are presented with an emphasis on their industrial applications. All of these new optical techniques have high spatial and temporal resolutions which have never been attained by other conventional measurement tools.

Increasing Temperature

The thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity. Hall coefficient und thermoelectric power of Ag2Se have been measured between 80 and 600°K. In the low temperature semiconductor phase the thermal conductivity increases with increasing temperature due to the high amount of carrier contribution. The latter has been calculated using the Price formula. Agreement with experiment is satisfactory. The specific heat has been measured between 30 and 200°C. For the latent heat a value of (5.7 ± 0.5) cal/gr was determined in agreement with measurements of Bellati and Lussana 4. In addition to the transition at 133 °C an unknown new transition has been found at about 90 °C.

Aqueous nanofluids composed of alumina nanoparticles with different sizes at a concentration from 0.1vol% to 0.5vol% were prepared by a two-step method. The suspension and dispersion characteristics were experimentally examined by zeta potential, average size and absorption spectrum. The thermophysical properties such as the viscosity, surface tension, thermal conductivity, saturation vapor pressure and latent heat of vaporization were measured. The influences of the particle size, particle volume concentration and temperature on the thermophysical property were investigated. It was found that the viscosity and thermal conductivity increased with decreasing nanoparticle size. In contrast, the surface tension, saturation vapor pressure and latent heat of vaporization decrease with decreasing nanoparticle size. The viscosity, thermal conductivity and saturation vapor pressure have an increasing tendency with increasing volume concentration. However, surface tension and latent heat of vaporization showed a reverse tendency. Furthermore, the temperature also showed had obvious influence on the nanofluids viscosity, thermal conductivity and surface tension.

Hybrid Nanofluids

Background: Hybrid nanofluids are considered as an extension of conventional nanofluids which are prepared through suspending two or more nanoparticles in the base fluids. Previous studies on hybrid nanofluids have measured their thermal conductivity overlooking other thermophysical properties such as viscosity and electrical conductivity. Objective: An experimental investigation is undertaken to measure thermal conductivity, viscosity, and electrical conductivity of a hybrid nanofluid prepared through dispersing alumina nanoparticles and multiwall carbon nanotubes in saltwater. These properties are the main important factors that must be assessed before performance analysis for industrial applications. Methods: The experimental data were collected for different values of the nanoparticle volume fraction, temperature, salt concentration, and pH value. Attention was paid to explore the consequences of these parameters on the nanofluid’s properties and to find optimal conditions to achieve the highest value of the thermal conductivity and the lowest values of the electrical conductivity and the viscosity. Results: The results demonstrate that although the impacts of the pH value and the nanoparticle volume fraction on the nanofluid’s thermophysical properties are not monotonic, optimal conditions for each of the properties are reachable. It is found that the inclusion of the salt in the base fluid may not change the thermal conductivity noticeably. However, a considerable reduction in the viscosity and substantial elevation in the electrical conductivity occur with an increase in the salt concentration. Conclusion: With the addition of salt to a base fluid, the thermophysical properties of a nanofluid can be controlled.
