Title: Nanofluids and Hybrid nanofluids containing Carbon Nanotubes– Inception and Evolution
Abstract: 
Nanofluid is a blend of suspended metallic nanoparticles and some customary fluid say water. The thermal performance of the base fluid is dramatically augmented with the inclusion of metallic nanoparticles. The application of nanofluids has revolutionalized modern engineering procedures especially in the manufacturing of small gadgets. The nanofluid has gained great significance in the field of nanotechnology as literature shows the attempt made by scientists and researchers to discover the numerous characteristic of nanofluids. Recently, an upgraded form of nanofluids namely “hybrid nanofluids” has replaced the usual nanofluid flows to further enhance the heat transfer capabilities. Hybrid nanofluids are a blend of nanoparticles of two or more types in a single customary fluid. The rate of heat transfer is much more in the case of hybrid nanofluids as compared to ordinary fluids. Nanofluids containing Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) are ultra heat transfer liquids. The alluring characteristics of CNTs make nanofluids more vital in daily life applications ranging from household to industrial usage.
