Abstract

This chapter outlines the promising thermophysical, electrical, magnetic, and dielectric properties of hybrid nanofluids that display considerable potential in heat transfer applications. The hybrid nanofluids exhibit a remarkable improvement in heat transfer performance as compared to mono-based nanofluids. It presents the recent advancements in the augmentation of hybrid nanofluids' thermophysical properties. At augmented particle loadings and temperatures of hybrid nanofluid, the thermophysical properties of thermal conductivity and specific heat are enhanced. Moreover, the dynamic viscosity and density of hybrid nanofluids decrease with temperature and increases with volume concentration. Temperature and volume concentration are the significant parameters that affect the thermophysical properties of hybrid nanofluids. It also presents studies on the properties such as magnetic and dielectric properties.
