## Abstract A simple mathematical model for calculating the effective thermal conductivity of nanofluids has been developed based on the thermal resistance approach. The model is developed by considering both effects of a solidβlike nanolayer and convective heat transfer caused by Brownian motion w

In this work thermal conductivity of the suspension is modeled using resistance model approach. This model considers Brownian motion and interfacial layer as well as a new mechanism where proposed by considering nanoparticles as liquid-like particles. The model can be used for estimation of upper an
A numerical scheme, based on a physical approach of the conduction phenomena, is proposed for the determination of the effective thermal conductivity of a two-components heterogeneous material. A medium made up of a regular assembly of cylinders is considered and the results appear to be consistent
