Abstract
<p>Nanofluids, comprising ultrafine nanoparticles dispersed in base fluids like water, ethylene glycol, and propylene glycol, offer enhanced thermal conductivity compared to conventional fluids. This study investigates the heat transfer and flow properties of nanofluids, focusing on their potential applications in improving thermal conductivity within heat transfer systems. Through experimental analysis, nanofluids demonstrated a threefold increase in thermal conductivity compared to traditional fluids. The study explores the implications of these findings for various heat transfer applications, highlighting the potential of nanofluids to enhance heat transfer efficiency and performance in diverse settings.</p>
