WebPropylene glycol is a colourless liquid that is relatively viscous, has no odour, and tastes slightly sweet. An enhancement of 4.24% in heat transfer rate was observed with 2vol.% ZnOPG nanofluid. However, experimental studies that jointly explore the physical properties of hybrids and the corresponding mono nanofluids are missing. Because of the poor electrical conductivity of the -SiC particles compared to the base ethylene glycol and propylene glycols ( p < < bf), case (1) therefore holds accordingly.
