ABSTRACT
This review reports the progress on the development of heat conductivity of nanofluids in recent 3 years. Theory and experiment that are the focus of this work are emphatically analysed and discussed, respectively. For the theory section, modelling and simulation of heat conductivity of nanofluids are narrated and discussed. For the experiment section, preparation of nanofluids, biological and chemical experiment of heat conductivity of nanofluids are illustrated. This paper will provide a valuable reference to designers who research heat conductivity of nanofluids for various applications.
