Homogeneous and stable diathermic oil-based TiO2 nanofluids were fabricated.
Sedimentation, Zeta potential (ζ) and size analysis were conducted to evaluate the stability of nanofluids.
The thermal conductivity of TiO2 nanofluids was higher than the base fluid.
Concentration and temperature had an appreciable effect on thermal conductivity of nanofluids.
The results indicated its application potentials for energy systems.
