Abstract

Tribological properties are crucial for air-conditioning system performance. The properties can be improved using nanolubricant. However, the effect of the binary ratio of hybrid nanolubricants on the tribological performance of automotive systems is limited in the literature. Therefore, the present study investigates the tribology performance of TiO2-SiO2 nanolubricants for application in automotive air-conditioning (AAC) systems. The dispersion of TiO2 and SiO2 into PVE lubricant was carried out using a two-step method. Subsequently, the dispersion stability was assessed qualitatively and quantitatively. The samples were characterised by a volume concentration of 0.010%, with variations in the mixture ratio of 20:80, 40:60, 50:50, 60:40, and 80:20. Coefficient of friction (COF) and wear scar diameter (WSD) values were determined using the Koehler Four-ball Tribo Tester and Light Compound Microscopy. The investigation revealed that each sample experienced a reduction in COF, with the 40:60 ratio demonstrating the best ratio with the most significant decrease of 37.09%. At the same time, the COF decreased by 8.34%, 2.12%, 7.37%, and 15.11% for the nanolubricant samples at 20:80, 50:50, 60:40, and 80:20, respectively. The WSD evaluation showed that the 40:60 ratio has the lowest scar diameter of 0.0344 mm and a 37.09% wear rate decrease compared to pure lubricant. Each sample exhibits superior performance when evaluated for tribological characteristics and performance, particularly in the case of nanolubricants with the 40:60 ratio. The TiO2-SiO2/PVE, characterised by a volume concentration of 0.010%, has remarkable efficacy across different binary ratios, making it highly recommended with a 40:60 ratio for lubricating AAC compressor systems.

Abstract

The ternary nanofluids are considered due to their advantages in overcoming the stability drawback of mono and binary nanofluids. This study aims to heat transfer performance of Al2O3-TiO2-SiO2 ternary nanofluids in plain tube with wire coil under experimental. The ternary nanofluids were formulated using the composition ratio of 20:16:64 by volume in various volume concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 3.0%. Thermal conductivity and dynamic viscosity of ternary nanofluids were measured with KD2 Pro Thermal Properties Analyzer and Brookfield LVDV III Rheometer. Experimental forced convection heat transfer was carried out using a fabricated setup for Reynolds numbers from 2,300 to 12,000 at bulk temperature of 70 °C in plain tubes with wire coil inserts (0.83 ≤ P/D ≤ 2.50). Experimental results are highest thermal conductivity enhancement of 24.8% was obtained for ternary nanofluids at 3.0% volume concentration. The 3.0% volume concentration also shows the highest viscosity at all temperatures. The maximum heat transfer improvement for ternary nanofluids in a plain tube with wire coil (P/D-0.83), was attained by 3.0% volume concentration of up to 199.23%. The average TPF of the wire coil increases compared to the plain tube and improves further with volume concentrations in the range of 2.39 to 2.84.
