The potential comes from both scientific and practical opportunities in many fields. The difficulty reflects the issues related to multiscales. Nanofluids involve at least four relevant scales the molecular scale the microscale the macroscale and the systemscale. The molecular scale is characterized by the mean free path between molecular collisions the microscale by the smallest scale at which the law of continuum mechanics applies the macroscale by the smallest scale at which a set of averaged properties of concern can be defined and the systemscale by the length scale corresponding to the domain of interest. By their very nature research and engineering practice in nanofluids are aimed at enhancing fluid macroscale and system-scale properties through the manipulatationof microscale physics structures properties and activities . Therefore the success of nanofluid technology depends very much on how well we can address issues such as effective means of microscale manipulation interplay among physics at different scales and the optimization of microscale physics for the optimal macroscale and system-scale properties. The present special issue is dedicated to the latest advances in addressing these issues. The objective is to promote interdisciplinary research on nanofluids and motivate the nano community which is uniquely qualified to make valuable contributions to become more involved in this field of research and development.
