Thermal Properties of Nanofluids presents emerging prospects for understanding and controlling thermophysical properties at the nanoscale. It covers a comprehensive study of recent progress concerning these properties from the solid state to colloids and, above all, a different look at the effect of temperature on nanofluids’ thermal conducting. Introducing various techniques for measuring solid-state properties, including thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, and specific heat capacity, this book presents modeling approaches developed for predicting these properties by molecular dynamic (MD) simulations. It discusses the main factors that affect solid-state properties, such as grain size, grain boundaries, surface interactions, doping, and temperature, and the effects of all these factors. This book will interest industry professionals and academic researchers studying the thermophysical behavior of nanomaterials and heat transfer applications of nanofluids. It will serve graduate engineering students studying advanced fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and nanomaterials.

Flow-based optimization of products and devices is an immature field compared to the corresponding topology optimization based on solid mechanics. However, it is an essential part of component development with both internal and/or external flow. The aim of this book is two-fold: (i) to provide state-of-the-art examples of flow-based optimization and (ii) to present a review of topology optimization for fluid-based problems.
