Experimental study on thermal performance of MWCNT nanocoolant in Perodua Kelisa 1000cc radiator system

Latest advances in nanotechnology have allowed development of new applications of nanofluids in vehicle engine cooling. In this study, the heat transfer enhancement of vehicle radiator by using water/ethylene glycol based multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) nanocoolant was studied experimentally. A...
