Abstract
In recent years, nanofluids have been used in heating systems and nanolubricants as working fluids in refrigeration and air conditioning systems. In the development of heat transfer properties, metal oxides and carbon-based compounds are mainly used in these suspensions. Often, nanolubricants are used, which are produced by combining several nanoparticles as a hybrid. In this context, the thermophysical properties of the hybrid nanolubricant BaTiO3/SrTiO3@MO such as density, heat capacity, thermal conductivity and viscosity were calculated and compared. In the study, BaTiO3 and SrTiO3 nanoparticles were used as solid particles in the hybrid structure. The thermophysical properties of the nanoparticles in the nanolubricant were also investigated. The mixing ratio of the nanoparticles in the hybrid structure was 1:1, and the particle mass fraction in 100 ml of mineral oil (MO) was also set at 1.0%. When comparing the thermophysical properties of mono and hybrid nanolubricants, it was found that the performance of the hybrid structures was better for cooling systems.
