Is there any relation between the thermal conductivity of nanoparticles and the calorific value of the liquid? Can we establish any relation between them?
the thermal conductivity is proportional to c*l*v, here are c the specific heat, l the mean free path and v the velocity of sound. If the calorific value means the ability to storage heat, then it is proportional to the thermal conductivity (proportional to c). If the caloric value means the energy which is set free at burning then it is not. The binding energy with oxygen is not to compare with c.

Dear Shrikant Madiwale, it is a widely treated subject, due to its widespread technological applications. If you search with the keyword 'nanofluids' you will endup with many documents. You will find many proposed models for the relationship you are looking for. These RG links and the attached files are good supports. My Regards
