A Review of the Impact of Preparation on Stability of Carbon Nanotube Nanofluids

Carbon nanotube (CNT) has the highest thermal conductivity among the nanoparticles that were discovered so far. Attempts to utilize them as heat transfer fluids by dispersing them into any kinds of base fluids called CNT nanofluids have been thoroughly conducted. However, one of the challenges faced...
