Effect of temperature and diameter of narrow single-walled carbon nanotubes on the viscosity of nanofluid: A molecular dynamics study

Effect of temperature and diameter of narrow single-walled carbon nanotubes on the viscosity of nanofluid: A molecular dynamics study

Equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations by all-atom model have been employed to investigate the adsorption properties and temperature dependence of the shear viscosity of ethanol molecules confined in narrow single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). Since the properties of the narrow tubes (diamet...
