Abstract
The relative effects of nanoparticle motion mechanisms of dilute suspensions, i.e., Brownian motion, thermo-phoresis and osmo-phoresis, including size dependence, on the thermal conductivity were theoretically investigated. The Brownian motion effect was found to be more significant by factors of image and image when compared to thermo-phoresis and osmo-phoresis, respectively.
