【 摘 要 】

We performed computational simulations and theoretical analysis to investigate the underlying origins of large thermal conductivity enhancements observed in nanofluids (colloidal suspensions of solid nanoparticles and/or nanofibers in thermal fluids) and to identify strategies towards tailoring nanofluids for better thermal performance.
