Experimental Analysis Of Stability And Thermal Conductivity For Silica Nanofluid In Water Block Heat Sink

Thermal performance has become one of the main issues in electronic industries in line with prevailing development. Conventional working fluid often used by electronic devices has some shortcomings on the efficiency of transferring heat for cooling purposes. Hence, nanofluid is used as replacement i...
