Carbon nanofibers (CNF) is one of potential nanoparticles that possess superior thermal conductivity. In this study, nanofluids with suspension of CNF in deionized water (DI water) and ethylene glycol (EG) are prepare. Thermal conductivity (TC) of the nanofluids are measured at 6°C, 25°C and 40°C using KD2 Pro Thermal Properties Analyser. The results show that, TC increases with increasing of temperature and CNF loading. Best TC is recorded by 36.7 % enhancement at 40 °C for EG based fluid with 0.9 wt% CNF loading. Meanwhile, for DI water based fluid, best TC enhancement (39.6 %) can be achieved with CNF loading of 0.7 wt% at 40°C. Overall, both based fluid show a promising enhancement in thermal conductivity. However, DI water based fluid show higher TC in comparison to EG based fluid due to the higher TC in standard DI water itself.

An organic acid antifreeze coolant was developed in this paper which consisted mainly of deionized water, organic acid, pyrrole compound, alkali and dye. Glycol, nitrite, chromate, inorganic phosphate and other harmful additives were not contained in this formulation. The coolant overcomes the disadvantages in environmental protection, heat transfer and cost of the current technology which uses the ethylene glycol as antifreeze. The coolant has good low temperature protection, thermal conductivity and corrosion protection performance. Further more, the coolant has the advantages of simple preparation, good storage stability and a promising prospects.

A facile, one-pot solvent-mediated hydrothermal process was adopted to prepare nickel sulfide nanoparticles decorated on reduced graphene oxide (NixSy/rGO) as electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The designed solvent (ethylene glycol and deionized water) played a decisive role in controlling both crystalline phase and morphology of NixSy/rGO composites, leading to pure [Formula: see text]-NiS nanoparticles uniformly distributed on rGO sheets under suitable volume ratio of ethylene glycol and deionized water (2:1). The optimized [Formula: see text]-NiS/rGO showed prominent HER catalytic performance with a rather small Tafel slope of 93[Formula: see text]mV/decade and prominent current density of 10[Formula: see text]mA/cm2 at the overpotential of 177[Formula: see text]mV in alkaline environments when compared to pristine [Formula: see text]-NiS and NiS2/rGO catalysts. The excellent catalytic performance and long-term durability even after 8000 cycles confirmed the potential of [Formula: see text]-NiS/rGO composites as efficient electrocatalysts for HER in the alkaline media.

Set Up

Transient hot wire method is considered a reliable and precise technique for measuring the thermal conductivity of liquids. The present paper describes a new transient hot wire experimental set-up and its initial testing. The new apparatus was tested by performing thermal conductivity measurements on substances whose reference thermophysical properties data existed in literature, namely on pure toluene and double distilled deionized water. The values of thermal conductivity measured in the temperature range 25 to 45 ?C deviated +2.2% to +3% from the literature data, while the expanded measurement uncertainty was estimated to be ?4%.
