Abstract
Equilibrium Molecular dynamics (EMD) simulation has been applied for computing thermal conductivity (TC) and viscosity of ethylene glycol (EG) base fluids containing hexagonal boron nitride nanosheet (hBNNS), within Green-Kubo (G-K) framework. The effects of nanosheets and temperature (285 K–323 K) on TC and viscosity have been studied. TC and viscosity increase with temperature and loading fraction of the nanosheets. Enhancement in TC and viscosity depends on diffusion coefficient (D), radial distribution function (RDF) and mean square displacement (MSD) of the nanofluids. The Kapitza resistance (RK) reduces at the EG- hBNNS interface as the number of nanosheets increase.
期刊介绍:
Chemical Physics Letters has an open access mirror journal, Chemical Physics Letters: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review.
Chemical Physics Letters publishes brief reports on molecules, interfaces, condensed phases, nanomaterials and nanostructures, polymers, biomolecular systems, and energy conversion and storage.
Criteria for publication are quality, urgency and impact. Further, experimental results reported in the journal have direct relevance for theory, and theoretical developments or non-routine computations relate directly to experiment. Manuscripts must satisfy these criteria and should not be minor extensions of previous work.
