Thermal conductivity measurements on ferrofluids

Abstract

The thermal conductivity of a number of ferrofluids consisting of colloidally dispersed Fe3O4 particles in diester, hydrocarbon, water and fluorcarbon carriers have been measured at 38°C. The variation in thermal conductivity with particle concentration is well described by Tareef's equation (1940). This has enabled the ratio of the physical to magnetic size to be determined and compared with estimates of the ratio obtained from electron micrographs and magnetic measurements.
