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.

A psychrometer table for use in atmospheres humidified with heavy water has been constructed by calculation from data on the vapor pressure and latent heat of vaporization of heavy water, between 10° and 40 °C. The relative humidity is quite markedly lower in the low temperature end of this range when heavy water is used instead of ordinary water, for the same wet and dry bulb readings.

The zero-point kinetic energy of liquid helium has been calculated from the interatomic potential, the latent heat of vaporization, and atomic distributions derived from neutron diffraction measurements. Calculations were carried out for two liquid temperatures and several published interatomic potential functions. The resulting values of the "zero-point temperature" lie between 9.0°K. and 12.6°K.
