Experimental Measurements on the Thermal Conductivity of Glycerol-Based Nanofluids with Different Thermal Contrasts

<div>Transmission electron microscope (Philips CM20 TEM) pictures of the different types of nanoparticles used in this study. (a) SiO<sub>2</sub> NPs with 50 nm average diameter, synthesized by using the Stöber process. (b) Copper oxide NPs with 7 nm average diameter, synthesized by a thermal decomposition process. The NPs were synthesized at the ICMN institute.</div>
