Abstract

The nanofluids are the promising smart fluids having advanced thermophysical properties. The earlier chapters have talked about various fascinating facts about the nanofluids. One of the important aspects of the nanofluids is the stability of the nanoparticles. The uniform and long-term suspension is the key and critical feature required in the nanofluids for the industrial applications of these advanced fluids. The chapter summarizes various stability evaluation methods and techniques to enhance the stability of nanofluids. There are number of methods to investigate the stability of the nanofluids. The various types of surfactants and additives are used by the researchers to enhance the stability of the nanofluids. The key factor of using additives is that it is influencing the thermophysical properties and chemical properties of such fluids. The mechanics behind the stability of nanofluids are also discussed in the article.
