Abstract

This work aims to study the enhanced thermal conductivity of silicone oil on increasing mass % of hard magnetic Sm-Co based nanoparticles (NPs) in the presence of external magnetic fields. Sm-Co NPs were synthesized using the low temperature 'Pechini-type sol–gel' process. The presence of mixed phases is evident through XRD, FESEM, and TEM. The average hydrodynamic size of Sm-Co NPs was measured 51 nm by DLS. The study of magnetization vs. magnetic field reveals the weak ferromagnetic ordering along with the paramagnetic behaviour of the Sm-Co NPs. Thermal conductivity enhancement of Sm-Co nanofluids showed an increasing trend with the rising particle concentration and magnetic flux density. A high thermal conductivity enhancement of ~ 373% is reported at 15 mass % concentration of Sm-Co nanofluids and at a magnetic flux density of 0.5 T. The mechanism behind this thermal conductivity enhancement in the presence of an externally applied magnetic field has been discussed on the basis of near field magneto-static interactions of the magnetic nanoparticles. Microstructural, magnetic, and heat transport studies of Sm-Co based MNFs are very useful for device applications.
