Three kinds of nanofluids are prepared by dispersing Al2O3 and AlN nanoparticles-in-transformer oil. The thermal conductivity of the nanoparticle-oil mixtures increases with particle volume fraction and thermal conductivity of the solid particle itself. The AlN nanoparticles at a volume fraction of 0.5% can increase the thermal conductivity of the transformer oil by 8% and the overall heat transfer coefficient by 20%. From the natural convection test using a prototype transformer, the cooling effect of Al2O3/AlN-oil nanofluids on the heating element and oil itself is confirmed. However, the excess quantity of surfactant has a harmful effect on viscosity, thermal property, chemical stability, and thus it is strongly recommended to control the addition of the surfactant with great care.
