Nanotubes Create Cool Heat Transfer Fluids.

Substantial reductions in heating bills, safer surgery and improved heat dissipation in smaller next generation computer chips, are among the potential benefits revealed from the latest studies conducted by researchers from the University of Leeds in the U.K. on nanoparticles dispersions used in heat transfer fluids.

Richard Williams and colleague Yulong Ding from the Institute of Particle Science and Engineering have demonstrated that nanofluids-suspensions containing nanoparticles that are at least less than 100 nanometers in one dimension-can transfer heat up to 400%. faster than other liquids. In a central heating system, such nanofluids could increase efficiency ...
