Nanofluids

This technology provides a method for making a nanofluid by nuclear irradiating a mixture of a base fluid and precursor to form the nanofluid. Nanofluids exhibit superior thermal properties such as enhanced thermal conductivity, viscosity, heat transfer coefficient, dielectric strength, etc. However, stability problems may arise as nanoparticles usually have the tendency to agglomerate and sediment producing deterioration in the increment of these properties especially in those made via the common techniques widely published in the art. 

It is accordingly the object of this technology to provide an improved method of making nanofluids which have better physical and chemical properties and improved stability, than those known in the art.
