摘要

纳米流体作为一种高效率和高传热性能的新型能量传输介质,在热力学、太阳能集热、微电子换热、热能存储和材料制备等领域显示出广阔应用前景。离子液体的宽液程范围和环境友好等优点适合应用于传热介质,特别是作为纳米流体的基液。本文以1-乙基-3-甲基咪唑三氟乙酸盐离子液体为基础溶剂,氧化石墨烯(GO)为纳米填充填料,采用“两步法”制备了离子液体基纳米流体。热物理性能研究表明,添加0.05wt.% GO可以使导热系数提升3.0%。此外,通过搭建光热转换测试平台对纳米流体光热转换效率进行研究,实验结果表明在6000s的辐照时间内,光热转换效率可达83%,纳米流体的最高温度可达105.89℃,相比纯离子液体,GO填充的纳米流体最大光热转换效率可提高29%。

Abstract

As a new type of energy transport medium with high efficiency and high heat transfer performance, nanofluids have shown broad application prospects in the fields of thermodynamics, solar heat collection, microelectronics, thermal energy, and material science. The wide liquid range and environmental properties of ionic liquids have drawn ample attention to their application when used as a working fluid, especially as a base solvent of nanofluids. The ionic liquid-based nanofluids were prepared by a two-step method using 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazole trifluoroacetate ionic liquid as a base solvent and graphene oxide (GO) as a nanofiller. Thermophysical properties study reveals that the thermal conductivity could be enhanced by 3.0% with the addition of 0.05 wt% GO, and the viscosity and the specific heat capacity were also subject to study as a function of testing temperature and concentration of nanofiller. Additionally, the photothermal conversion efficiency of these nanofluids was studied comprehensively under different conditions. The results show that the photothermal conversion efficiency can reach 83% within an irradiation time of 6000 s and the highest temperature of the nanofluids is up to 105.89°C with a maximum photothermal conversion efficiency increase by 29%.
