Results of the measurements of dynamic viscosity, thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity and pH of thermal oil-MWCNT (TO-MWCNT) nanofluid have been presented. Nanoparticles were tested at the concentration of 0.001%, 0.005%, 0.01%, 0.05%, and 0,1% by weight. Thermal oil (TO) was selected as a base liquid, because of possible application in ORC systems as an intermediate heating agent. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes were used as nanoparticles because of their enormous thermal conductivity. The results obtained for the tested nanofluids were compared with predictions made by use of existing models for liquid/solid particles mixtures.
