Copper oxide nanoparticles (similar to 40 nm) are dispersed in gear oil (IBP Haulic-68) at different volume fractions (0.005-0.025) with oleic acid added as a surfactant to stabilize the system. Prepared nanofluids are characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements. DES data confirmed the presence of agglomerated nanoparticles in the prepared nanofluids. Thermal conductivity measurements are performed both as a function of CuO volume fraction and temperature between 5 and 80 degrees C. An enhancement in thermal conductivity at 30 degrees C of 10.4% with 0.025 volume fraction of CuO nanoparticle loading is observed. Measured volume fraction dependence of the thermal conductivity enhancement at room temperature is predicted fairly well considering contributions from both nanolayer at the solid-liquid interface and particle agglomeration in the suspension, as visualized by Feng et al.
