A review of multiwalled carbon nanotubes as solar thermic fluids and their thermophysical properties is done in this article. The basic fluids were ethylene glycol and water in ratios of 100 : 0, 90 : 10, and 80 : 20. To investigate how surface modification impacts thermophysical properties, three base fluids were combined with surfactant-assisted MWCNTs and oxidized MWCNTs in weight fractions of 0.125, 0.25, and 0.5 percent, respectively. It takes two months to check whether the dispersion stays constant. Thermal conductivity and viscosity measurement were done using heated discs and Anton Paar viscometers. Using oxidized MWCNTs to disperse, the base fluids increased thermal conductivity by 15% to 24%. Surfactant-assisted MWCNTs in nanofluids perform worse than oxidized MWCNTs. The dynamic viscosity of nanofluids is higher than that of basic fluids between 50 and 70°C. During a mathematical computation, all of the MWCNT weight fractions and ethylene glycol volume percentages are included. The correlation may be a good fit for the experimental data within limits. The characteristics are forecasted using feed-forward backpropagation. In this research, buried layer neurons and factors are examined.

AbstractThis paper summarizes the anti-corrosive and anti-erosive properties of water-ethylene glycol based commercial coolant dispersed with nanomaterials. Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), silver nanoparticles (Ag) and nanosized alumina particles (Al2O3) are dispersed in 0.5% weight in automotive coolants and tested for anti-corrosive properties as per ASTM standards. Prior to dispersion, the nanomaterials are surface modified to get good stability in coolant solutions. The corrosion resistance is measured in terms of weight loss of materials that is commonly used in automotive systems. It is found that oxidized MWCNTs are suitable to automotive systems while silver and Al2O3 nanoparticles are found to be deleterious in nature.
