This work will investigate the potential of novel NanoFluid materials with surfactant stabilisation to enhance energy transfer by improving heat exchange efficiency within both heating and cooling systems. These multifunctional nanomaterial formulations would be further investigated to understand their heat transfer capability using microfluidic experimentation, physical and computational analysis. The outcomes will inherently have significant impact on built environments, research, health, sustainable energy, space materials and also applications in industry.
