Abstract
The focus of this work is the synthesis and the measurement of the thermophysical properties of nanolubricants with a dispersion of nanodiamonds in polyolester refrigeration oil as base fluid at three different mass concentrations 0.01, 0.05 and 0.1%. The density and the viscosity were measured at different temperatures from 10 to 100 °C, and the thermal conductivity was measured from 5 to 65 °C. It was observed that the viscosity of the nanolubricants increases slightly at low concentration but achieves significant values up to 7% for 1.0% mass concentration, otherwise the viscosity is reduced exponentially with the increment of the temperature. The thermal conductivity of pure POE oil and the nanolubricants showed a trend to decrease with the increment of the temperature and to increase up to 12% as the mass concentration of nanoparticles increases.
