Abstract

We investigate the effect of magnetic field (H) on the thermal conductivity (λ) and effusivity (ε) of cobalt ferrite based nanofluids having different concentrations (ϕ). Cobalt ferrite nanoparticles (NPs) have been synthesized using the microwave assisted method. At high volume fraction of cobalt ferrite nanoparticles in water (ϕ > 0), both thermal parameters have been found to be suppressed relative to ϕ and λ of water in the absence of H. However, it is seen that percentage values of the effusivity in perpendicular field direction show negative to positive variation, and thermal conductivity in parallel field direction shows negative to zero variation.
