Magnetite nanofluid has been prepared in citric acid based medium. Their stability and polydispersity level have been characterized by UV-visible spectrophotometry.The volumetric properties such as apparent molar volume, partial molar volume and isentropic compressibility of nanofluid have been measured at temperature range from 298.15K to 313.15K at atmospheric pressure. The obtained results were interpreted in terms of particle-particle and particle-fluid interactions, and compared with commercially available magnetite nanofluid in terms of particle size difference. It was observed that the influence of particle size on measured volumetric parameters is significant for any practical applications of fluid flow. The differences in measured quantities were determined qualitatively by considering the state of aggregation / particle size distribution of the nanofluids.

The thermophysical properties of the binary mixtures containing biofuel components derived from biomass were determined. Experimental densities, speed of sound, and refractive indices for the binary mixtures (methanol or 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate [EMIM][OAc] + furfural or furfuryl alcohol ) were measured at T = (298.15, 303.15, 308.15, 313.15 and 318.15) K. From the experimental data, excess molar volume, E m V , isentropic compressibility, s  , molar refractions, R, and deviation in refractive index, Δn, were calculated. The excess molar volumes were found to be negative for all systems studied. The isentropic compressibility were found to be both positive for the whole composition and temperature range and increases slightly with increasing temperature. The deviation in refractive index was positive over the whole composition range. The obtained values of excess molar volumes and changes of refractive index on mixing were satisfactorily correlated by the Redlich–Kister equation. The Lorentz–Lorenz equation was applied to predict the density and calculate the excess molar volume of the binary mixtures.
