Nanofluids
have recently been the subject of interest from researchers in parallel with
the developments in nanotechnology. In most of the calculations related to
nanofluids, it is necessary to determine their thermophysical properties
accurately. The accurate determination of viscosity, which is one of the
thermophysical properties of nanofluids, is very important, especially for heat
transfer practices. In the study, the viscosity values of the nanofluids in
different temperatures, which were prepared by adding Al₂O₃
nanoparticles in gamma phase with volumetric ratios of 0.4%, 0.8%, 1.2% and 1.6%
into distilled water, were determined experimentally and the results were
presented comparatively with literature.
