A novel comprehensive experimental study concerned synthesizes and prepare liquid paraffin-Fe3O4 mixture to develop models for both thermal conductivity & viscosity: A new approach of GMDH type of neural network

This research aims to understand the impacts of volume concentration of Fe3O4 nanoparticles and temperature on the viscosity & thermal conductivity of liquid paraffin based nanofluid. Several experiments are conducted in the Fe3O4 concentration range of 0.5–3% and temperature range of 20–90 °C. Oleic acid is utilized as a surfactant for the improved dispersibility and stability of nanofluids. It was found that the nanofluid behaves as a shear...
