Modeling transient absorption and thermal conductivity in a simple nanofluid [PDF]

open access: green, 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.
