Classical viscosity predicting models for conventional-scale particle suspensions failed to predict viscosities of nanofluids. Based on molecular dynamics simulation, the present work deliberated on the effects of absorption layer and nanoparticle agglomeration, and presented a modified predicting model for viscosity of nanofluids. The predicting values of the modified model for viscosities of nanofluids were well in agreement with experimental results. The diameter of nanoparticle agglomeration and thickness of absorption layer were found to be important influencing factors for viscosities of nanofluids that should be considered..

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
