Abstract

In this paper, the attention is given on Preparation, characteristics, and applications of nanofluids in detail. It was found that the use of Nanofluids appears promising, but the development of the field faces several challenges like long term stability, pressure drop, erosion, power consumption, etc. In this paper, thermal physical properties of nanoparticles suspended in refrigerant and lubricating oil of refrigerating systems were reviewed. Several interesting properties of nanofluids have been detailed in this review.

Keywords
