also found to enhance the critical heat flux of the refrigerant. Literature studies show that Thermal conductivity of Nano fluid is greater than that of base fluid. Also viscosity of Nano fluid is greater than that of the base fluid. These are the uses of Nano fluids. Nano fluids also have certain disadvantages. It can operate at higher pressures than traditional refrigerants. Also, the ozone depletion potential of R410a is zero which suggests that it is environmental friendly. In this project CFD analysis carried out by using FLUENT software and spectroscopic analysis of Nano particles is observed through ANSYS shows sediments formed indicating Nano fluids are not fairly dispersed in the base fluid & thermal conductivity of Nano fluids is greater than that of base fluid.

1. INTRODUCTION Thermal properties of liquids play a decisive role in heating as well as cooling applications in industrial processes. Thermal conductivity of a liquid is an important physical property that decides its heat transfer performance. Conventional heat transfer fluids have inherently poor thermal conductivity which makes them inadequate for ultra high cooling applications. Scientists have tried to enhance the inherently poor thermal conductivity of these conventional heat transfer fluids using solid additives following the classical effective medium theory for effective properties of mixtures. Fine tuning of the dimensions of these solid suspensions to millimeter and micrometer ranges for getting better heat transfer performance have failed because of the drawbacks such as still low thermal conductivity, particle sedimentation, corrosion of components of machines, particle clogging, excessive pressure drop etc. Downscaling of particle sizes continued in the search for new types of fluid suspensions having enhanced thermal properties as well as heat transfer performance.

All physical mechanisms have a critical scale below which the properties of a material changes totally. Modern nanotechnology offers physical and chemical routes to prepare nanometer sized particles or nanostructure materials engineered on the atomic or molecular scales with enhanced thermo-physical properties compared to their respective bulk forms.

1.1. Properties of R410a It may be noted that particle size is an important physical parameter in nanofluids because it can be used to tailor the nanofluid thermal properties as well as the suspension stability of nanoparticles.

Compared to micrometer sized particles, nanoparticles possess high surface area to volume ratio due to the occupancy of large number of atoms on the boundaries, which make them highly stable in suspensions. Thus the nano suspensions show high thermal conductivity possibly due to enhanced convection between the solid particle and liquid surfaces. Since the properties like the thermal conductivity of the nano sized materials are typically an order of magnitude higher than those of the base fluids, nanofluids show enhancement in their effective thermal properties. Due to the lower dimensions, the dispersed nanoparticles can behave like a base fluid molecule in a suspension, which helps us to reduce problems like particle clogging, sedimentation etc. found with micro particle suspensions. The combination of these two features; extra high stability and high conductivity of the dispersed ’nanospecies’

make them highly preferable for designing heat transfer fluids. The stable suspensions of small quantities of nanoparticles will possibly help us to design lighter, high performance thermal management systems.

2. LITERATURE REVIEW Nano fluids have been attracting the attention of researchers all over the world in the past decade. Many works have been going on to investigate the effects of Nano fluids on heat transfer characteristics of refrigerants. Research in the area of heat transfer have been carried out over the previous several decades, leading to the development of data for heat transfer performance of currently used base fluids. The use of additives is a technique applied to enhance the heat transfer performance of these base fluids. Passive enhancement methods such as enhanced surfaces are often employed in thermo fluid systems. This is because the thermal conductivities of the working fluids such as ethylene glycol, water, and engine oil, are comparatively lower than that of the solid phases. In general, most of the solids have better heat transfer properties compared to traditional heat transfer fluids. Therefore, the development of advanced heat transfer fluids with higher thermal conductivity and improved heat transfer is in strong demand. The use of additives is another technique applied to enhance the heat transfer performance of base fluids. The suspended metallic or non-metallic particles change the transport properties and heat transfer characteristics of the base fluid.

Ruixiang Wanga, Qingping Wua, Yezheng Wua stated that, “A new kind of mineral refrigeration oil MNRO, formed by blending Nano fluids of NiFe2O4 into a Naphthalene based mineral refrigeration oil B32, was substituted for POE VG 32 as lubricant in a refrigerator employing R410a as the refrigerant. The preparation of the new MNRO has also been presented in detail. The MNRO appears stable enough to be employed as a refrigeration oil lubricant in RAC and other refrigerating systems.

By 19th century, systems operating on ammonia–water found wide application in residential and industrial refrigerators.

S.U.S. Choi, ASME[4], 99(1995) showed that the addition of a small amount of nanoparticles (less than 1% by volume) to base fluid would increase the thermal conductivity of the fluid up to approximately two times. But thermal conductivity having the most
