Tailoring the Spectral Absorption Coefficient of a Blended Plasmonic Nanofluid Using a Customized Genetic Algorithm [PDF]
Sci. Rep. 10, 8891 (2020), 2020 Recently, plasmonic nanofluids (i.e., a suspension of plasmonic nanoparticles in a base fluid) have been widely employed in direct-absorption solar collectors because the localized surface plasmon supported by plasmonic nanoparticles can greatly improve the direct solar thermal conversion performance.

Nanofluidic Devices and Their Applications [PDF]
Analytical Chemistry, 2008 Recent developments in micro- and nanotechnologies made possible the fabrication of devices integrating a deterministic network of nanochannels, i.e., with at least one dimension in a range from 1 to 100 nm. The proximity of this dimension and the Debye length, the size of biomolecules such as DNA or proteins, or even the slip length, added to the ...

Beyond the Maxwell Limit: Thermal Conduction in Nanofluids with Percolating Fluid Structures [PDF]
Physical Review E, 76, 062501 (2007), 2007 In a well-dispersed nanofluid with strong cluster-fluid attraction, thermal conduction paths can arise through percolating amorphous-like interfacial structures. This results in a thermal conductivity enhancement beyond the Maxwell limit of 3*phi, with phi being the nanoparticle volume fraction.
