Modeling transient absorption and thermal conductivity in a simple nanofluid [PDF]
, 2006 Molecular dynamics simulations are used to simulate the thermal properties of a model fluid containing nanoparticles (nanofluid). By modelling transient absorption experiments, we show that they provide a reliable determination of interfacial resistance between the particle and the fluid.

Spreading-splashing transition of nanofluid droplets on a smooth flat surface [PDF]
Journal of Colloid And Interface Science 606P1 (2022) pp. 434-443, 2021 Even a small fraction of nanoparticles in fluids affects the splashing behavior of a droplet upon impact on a smooth surface. Nanofluid drop impact onto a smooth sapphire substrate is experimentally investigated over wide ranges of Reynolds ($10^2<\mathrm{Re}<10^4$) and Weber ($50<\mathrm{We}<500$) numbers for three nanofluid mass concentrations (0.01%,
