Nanoparticles Could Improve Energy Efficiency

How can nanoparticles save any energy at all? Well, if you think for a second about big ships, factories and large cooling systems, adding just the right mix of nanoparticles to lubricants and refrigerants can make all the difference in the world. Now, consider that about 13 percent of the electric power consumed in the US, or 9 percent of the energy produced by the country, goes into running large industrial cooling systems and you suddenly realize that even the smallest improvements can save m...
