  • Critical review of the novel applications and uses of nanofluids 
    Taylor, R.; Coulombe, S.; Otanicar, T.; Phelan, P.; Gunawan, A.; Lv, W.; Rosengarten, G.; Prasher, R.; Tyagi, H. (2016-12-01)
    Nanofluids - one simple product of the emerging world nanotechnology - where nanoparticles (nominally 1-100 nm in size) are mixed with conventional base fluids (water, oils, glycols, etc.). Nanofluids have seen enormous ...
  • The impact of thermal engineering research on global climate change 
    Phelan, P.; Abdelaziz, O.; Otanicar, T.; Phelan, B.; Prasher, R. S.; Taylor, R. A.; Tyagi, H. (2021-11-29)
    Global climate change is recognized by many people around the world as being one of the most pressing issues facing our society today. The thermal engineering research community clearly plays an important role in addressing ...
  • Limits of selectivity of direct volumetric solar absorption 
    Hewakuruppu, Y.L.; Taylor, R.A.; Tyagi, H.; Khullar, V.; Otanicar, T.; Coulombe, S.; Hordy, N. (2016-07-25)
    Direct volumetric absorption of solar radiation is possible with fluids which have controlled optical properties. As with conventional surface absorbers, it is possible to make direct absorbing collectors ‘selective’ where ...
  • Small particles, big impacts: a review of the diverse applications of nanofluids 
    Taylor, R.; Coulombe, S.; Otanicar, T.; Phelan, P.; Gunawan, A.; Lv, W.; Rosengarten, G.; Prasher, R.; Tyagi, H. (2016-11-30)
    Nanofluids - a simple product of the emerging world of nanotechnology - are suspensions of nanoparticles (nominally 1-100 nm in size) in conventional base fluids such as water, oils, or glycols. Nanofluids have seen enormous ...
  • Trends and opportunities in direct-absorption solar thermal collectors 
    Phelan, P.; Otanicar, T.; Taylor, R.; Tyagi, H. (2016-11-29)
    Efficient conversion of sunlight into useful heat or work is of increasing global interest. Solar-to-thermal energy conversion, as opposed to solar-to-electricity, is enabled by solar thermal collectors that convert sunlight ...
