Abstract
Ionanofluids are a very new class of nanofluids having ionic liquids as the base fluid. Thermophysical properties of base ionic liquids (ILs) and nanoparticle enhanced ionic liquids (NEILs) are part of studying a new class of fluids for heat transfer. NEILs are formed by dispersing different volume fractions of nanoparticles in a base ionic liquid. In this article, only the thermal conductivity enhancement was considered for comparison of the different ionanofluids. NEILs show enhanced thermal conductivity compared to the base ILs. Maximum thermal conductivity enhancement was observed by adding 1 % MWCNT to [C4mim][(CF3SO2)2N] ionic liquid. However, if 0.05% MWCNT are added to [(C6)3PC14)][NTf2] no enhancement in thermal conductivity was noticed.
