Dataset on critical parameters of dispersion stability of Cu/Al2O3 nanofluid and hybrid nanofluid for various ultra-sonication times

Abstract

© 2019 The Authors The data presented in this data article comprises the critical parameters of dispersion stability such as the particle effective diameter, zeta potential, sedimentation velocity and stability factor for Cu/Al2O3 single particle nanofluid and hybrid nanofluid samples at various ultra-sonication times, that is, 0.5 h, 1.0 h, 2.0 h and 3.0 h. The data for effective diameter and zeta potential was generated using the particle size analyser and zeta potential analyser respectively. The measured data for effective diameter and zeta potential was processed to generate the data for sedimentation velocity and stability factor. The ultra-sonication time with maximum value of stability factor was used for sample preparation of Cu/Al2O3 single particle nanofluid and hybrid nanofluid in the related research article “On trade-off for dispersion stability and thermal transport of Cu-Al2O3 hybrid nanofluid for various mixing ratios” (Siddiqui et al., 2019) [1].
