• Study of viscosity and specific heat capacity characteristics of water-based Al2O3 nanofluids at low particle concentrations (2015, result): “It is observed from Figure 8 that the viscosity is decreasing with increase of particle diameter as expected following the classical behaviour for dispersions and is in agreement with the numerical results of Lu and Fan [43] and experimental results of different authors [11,44–46].”
• Latest developments on the viscosity of nanofluids (2012, unknown): “[59] measured the viscosity of SiO2 in ethanol at room temperature with three different nanoparticle sizes as 35, 94 and 190 nm and for a volume fraction of 1.”
• A brief review on viscosity of nanofluids (2014, unknown): “[32] noticed that the viscosity of SiO2–ethanol nanofluids increases with an increase in volume concentration.”
• Viscosity of Nanofluids. Why It Is Not Described by the Classical Theories (2013, unknown): “In contrast, studies [46,54,55] showed a reduction in the viscosity of nanofluids with increasing particle size.”
• A Review on Properties, Opportunities, and Challenges of Transformer Oil-Based Nanofluids (2016, background): “The experimental results obtained by researchers [97, 98] have concluded that viscosity increases by reducing the size of nanoparticles.”
• Experimental investigations of the viscosity of nanofluids at low temperatures (2012, methodology): “The rheological behaviour of nanofluids could be st rongly affected by the preparation method of nanofluids [12], viscosity of the base fluid, parti cles shape and size [13], particles concentration, temperature, surfactant and dispersion state of the nanoparticles.”
