Investigation on the Viscosity of Lithium-Bromide/Water Solution Added Nano-Particles

Viscosity of the suspension fluid, mixed with nano-particles, is an important thermal-physical parameter in researching the flow pattern and heat transfer properties of the fluid, and is closely related to the stability of mineral suspension. Therefore, it is important to study the varying mechanism of the viscosity of lithium-bromide/water solution added some of nano-particles to enhance their heat transfer. This paper investigated the lithium-bromide/water solution’viscosity after adding dispersant and nano-particles by the rotation method. The influence of different adding nano-material content and various temperatures on the viscosity of lithium-bromide/water solution were discussed reasonably. Finally, the relationship between the viscosity of lithium-bromide/water solution and dispersant, nano-particles addition and applied temperature was made.
