水基ZnO纳米流体黏度及流变特性研究

实验通过“两步法”制备了水基氧化锌纳米流体,分析ZnO质量分数、温度、剪切速率、剪切应力对纳米流体黏度和流变特性的影响规律。实验数据得出,温度不变时,所制备流体黏度随浓度增加而增大。ZnO纳米颗粒的质量分数为0.4%时,纳米流体的黏度最小;质量分数为2.292%时,黏度最大。温度由15℃上升到55℃时,所制备流体黏度表现为非线性下降。在15℃时,纳米流体黏度最大;在55℃时,纳米流体黏度最小。在剪切率小于10 s^(-1)时,随着剪切率的增大,纳米流体的黏度均逐渐降低,超过10 s^(-1)后黏度趋于稳定。当温度为55℃,剪切率大于10 s^(-1)时,质量分数为0.4%的ZnO纳米流体具有最低的黏度特性。

湿化学法制备ZnO纳米流体

采用湿化学法成功制备了氧化锌（ZnO）纳米流体。用X射线衍射仪（XRD）、透射电子显微镜（TEM）对ZnO纳米颗粒的成分、分散性、形貌和粒径进行了分析表征；研究了醇水比（丙二醇（PG）／水）、乙酸锌浓度、反应时间、分散剂等因素对纳米流体分散稳定性和ZnO粒径的影响。结果表明，以乙酸锌（（CH3COO）2Zn·2H2O）为锌源，以氢氧化钠（NaOH）为碱源，V（丙二醇）：V（水）=3：2，乙酸锌浓度为0．1mol·L^-1，反应时间0．5h，聚乙二醇2000（PEG2000）加入1％（m（PEG2000）／m（乙酸锌）=1％）时为最佳工艺条件，产物氧化锌颗粒大小在20～30nm，分散性好，解决了团聚问题，可以稳定较长时间。

二元混合表面活性剂对纳米流体热物性影响

采用两步法制备了添加二元混合表面活性剂的氧化锌纳米流体,纳米颗粒的体积浓度为0.398%~2.292%。XRD、TEM对氧化锌纳米粒子进行表征,吸光度法和沉降法分析了纳米流体稳定性,之后研究15~55℃时,制备流体的导热与黏度,并与添加单一表面活性剂的纳米流体进行对比。实验结果显示,添加SDS/CTAB纳米流体稳定性更优。纳米流体导热系数随温度及纳米粒子体积浓度的增加而增大,55℃,2.292%的纳米流体热导率增强最大,提高了38%,且热导率增强作用明显优于单一表面活性剂的添加。纳米流体黏度随温度及纳米粒子体积浓度的增加而逐渐降低,在55℃,2.292%时拥有最小黏度0.645 mPa·s。与单一表面活性剂相比,SDS/CTAB的添加能有效降低纳米流体黏度,对减小纳米流体黏度有积极作用。

Magnetohydrodynamic flow and heat transfer impact on ZnO-SAE50 nanolubricant flow over an inclined rotating disk

The present article has been fine-tuned with the investigation of mixed convection Darcy-Forchheimer flow of ZnO-SAE50 oil nanolubricant over an inclined rotating disk under the influence of uniform applied magnetic field applied to various industries.The current study has been enriched with additional consideration of slip flow,thermal radiation,viscous dissipation,Joulian dissipation and internal heating.In view of augmentation of thermal conductivity of nanolubricant,a new micro-nano-convection model namely Patel model has been invoked.The specialty of this model involves the effects of specific surface area and nano-convection due to Brownian motion of nanoparticles,kinetic theory based micro-convection,liquid layering and particle concentration.Suitably transformed governing equations have been solved numerically by using Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg scheme.An analysis of the present study has shown that applied magnetic field,porosity of the medium,velocity slip and inertia coefficient account for the slowing down of radial as well as tangential flow of ZnO-SAE50 oil nanolubricant,thereby leading to an improvement in velocity and thermal boundary layers.
