Ground measurements of dcmix 4 project Fullerene based nanofluid

Abstract

This work presents first on ground measurements of DCMIX 4 project ternary nanofluid Fullerene, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphtalene and Toluene. Transport properties have been measured by Thermogravitational, Optical Digital Interferometry and Optical Beam Deflection techniques for concentration analysed in DCMIX 4 project, which refers to 0.0007 – 0.60 – 0.3993 and other fullerene concentrations around this value. Various thermophysical and optical properties which are necessary to determine thermodiffusion coefficients have been also measured.
