obvious that a new materials need to be found to continue the trend of smaller‚ faster‚ and cheaper microprocessors12. As for graphene’s thermal properties‚ its thermal conductivity stands out with a potential of (4.84±0.44) ×103 to (5.30±0.48) ×103 W/m−1K−1 as shown by researchers from the University of California Riverside7. To have a good thermal conductivity

evaporates‚ the vapour will be less dense than the liquid. Because the fluid is less dense than the bulk fluid‚ it will rise and cool fluid will replace it. Natural convection currents are set up. Clearly the rate of heat transfer depends on the thermal conductivity of the fluid in contact with the surface and the volumetric expansion properties of the fluid. The flow of fluids over a surface is also a major topic in fluid mechanics and the work on boundary layers covered in other

applications: * Compressive strength makes ceramics good structural materials (bricks in houses and stones blocks in pyramids) * High voltage insulators and spark plugs are made from ceramics due to its electrical conductivity properties * Because of their good thermal insulation‚ ceramics are used as tiles in ovens and as exterior tiles on the shuttle orbiter. * Hardness abrasion resistance‚ imperviousness to high temperatures and extremely caustic conditions allow ceramics to be used

are nanoscale colloidal suspensions containing condensed nanomaterials. They are two-phase systems with one phase (solid phase) in another (liquid phase). Nanofluids have been found to possess enhanced thermophysical properties such as thermal conductivity‚ thermal diffusivity‚ viscosity‚ and convective heat transfer coefficients compared to those of base fluids like oil or water. It has demonstrated great potential applications in many fields. For a two-phase system‚ there are some important issues
