"… an excellent source of information for researchers and engineers to understand the application of heat transfer enhancement using nanofluids."
—Heat Transfer Engineering, 2016"… an interesting journey in the area of nanofluids and covers almost all aspects starting with properties estimation methods and continuing with convection heat transfer particularities and special applications. … I found this book very useful for all professionals in the heat transfer enhancement area, with particular focus on nanofluids new capabilities."
—Alina Adriana Minea, Technical University "Gheorghe Asachi" from Iasi, Romania
"The topics covered in the "Heat Transfer Enhancement with Nanofluids" ma[t]ched the required information which students whom have not been exposed to Nanofluid area previously. The book includes numerous applications of nanofluids as different chapters which make it a good text book for engineers and researchers."
—Dr Mohsen Sharifpur, Nanofluids Research Laboratory, Department of Mechanical and Aeronautical Engineering, University of Pretoria
" an up-to-date and thought-provoking book on a rich but still evolving field of a considerable theoretical interest and possible future applications."
—Gennady Ziskind, Dept. of Mech. Engineering, Ben-Gurion University
"The 16 chapters collected in this book cover a broad range of fundamental and applied research on the heat transfer enhancement with nanofluids by theoretical, numerical and experimental studies, from scientific enquiries to practical applications. They disseminate the latest research discoveries and can serve as an important source of reference for fundamentals and applications of heat transfer in nanofluids. … highly recommended for students and professionals in mechanical, civil, environmental, energy, power, chemical, aerospace, and biomedical engineering."
—Professor Liqiu Wang, Department of Mechanical Engineering, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong
"I think that the present book should be in the shelf of all libraries of faculties or departments in which heat transfer researchers work."
—Moghtada Mobedi, Faculty of Engineering, Shizuoka University
