A comparative investigation on effects of nanoparticles on characteristics of natural esters-based nanofluids

The effects of transformer oil-based nanofluids have been broadly investigated and showcased a magnificent improvement in performance. But in natural esters based nanofluids characteristic performance persist virtually unexplored and still, there is a room for investigation. This work aims to examine the effect of three dissimilar hypes of nanoparticles such as Aluminum Oxide (Al2O3), Boron Nitrate (BN) and Ferrous Ferric Oxide (Fe3O4) at various volume concentrations on the characteristic performance of natural esters. Honge oil (HO), Neem oil (NO), Mustard oil (MO) and Punna oil (PO) is considered as the base fluid for investigation. The characteristic performances of base fluids are tested before and after blending of nanoparticles as per standards. The findings are quite promising because the performance of nanofluids shows a significant improvement.
