A Review :- Carbon nanotubes: Properties and Viscosity of Nanofluids

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present the broad range of nanofluid based current and future applications. Some barriers and challenges are also focused for implementing these new class of working fluids. The major developments in both the basic research and the industrial application of the carbon nanotubes are reviewed. The theoretical efforts are directed to the understanding the amazing mechanical, electronic, transport, vibration, thermal, etc., properties most of them owing their uniqueness to the quasi-one-dimensional sp2-bonded structure of the carbon nanotubes.
