Abstract This paper present study of procedure for synthesis of nano fluid. Nanofluid is the colloidal mixture of base fluid (water, glycol etc.) and nano particles (1-100nm). It is the new concept of heat transfer for different engineering applications & various fields. This paper summarizes the recent research in studies on heat transfer of nanofluid. The TEM photograph of cuO is given to determine the stability & regularity of suspension. This paper presents the brief range of current and future applications in various field like mechanical, electrical, transportation, solar absorption & biomedical field. Keywords- Synthesis of Nanofluids, Applications of Nanofluids, Nano Fluid Synthesis, Oscillating Heat Pipe

I. INTRODUCTION Nowadays, there is increase in development of electronic industries but the major problem occur in electronic component is excessive heating of components. This excessive heat can be extract by using heat pipes and oscillating heat pipes. In heat pipes different working fluids are used such as nanofluids, hybrid nanofluids, and water. Nanofluid is the improvement in nanotechnology, the synthesis of particles size upto certain nanometers. Mixing of nanoparticles in base fluid is called nanofluid. Suspension of nanoparticle improves thermal conductivity of fluid. Different particle material are used to prepare nanofluid such as Al2O3, CuO, SiC, TiC, Ag, Cu & Fe. Carbon nanotubes also used their thermal conductivity is extremely high. In nanofluid water, ethylene glycol & engine oil are used as base fluid, to increase the stability of nanoparticles some amount of additives is added in base fluid. The researchers are working on different design of heat pipe. It consists of different sections like evaporator, condenser& adiabatic section which connects condenser & evaporator section. A. Preparation of Nanofluid There are generally two different ways to produce nanofluid, two-step method & one-step method. In the two-step method, in the first step nanoparticles are prepared and the second step is the mixing the nanoparticles & base fluid. Two-step method is beneficial for mass production of nanofluids, by using the method of inert gas condensation nanoparticles can be made in large amounts. The main difficulty of the two-step method is the nanoparticles forms group of particle due to that nanoparticle unable to properly mix with base fluid. In one-step method, the making of nanoparticles and properly mixing of nanoparticles in the base fluid into a single step. The most common methods is direct evaporation one-step method, in this method the nanofluid is made by the condensation of gas phase nanoparticle in the base fluid. In one-step method, nanoparticle properly mix with base fluid as compared to two-step method. But the main drawback of one-step method is not suitable for mass production. B. Working of Oscillating Heat Pipe (OHP) Oscillating heat pipe is a heat pipe which is introduced by Akachi in 90’s. The operation of OHP is depends upon oscillating/pulsating motion of working fluid inside the tube. When high temperature is sense by one end, due to high temperature vapour pressure of working fluid is increases causes bubble formation in evaporator section, this pushes the liquid to the low temperature end, which increases the pressure deference between both ends because of condensation at low temperature end, due to interconnection of the tubes, motion of slug &vapour bubbles from one section to other section is takes place.
