Abstract
This invention allows for an underutilized hydrocarbon fluid such as typical Group 1 base stocks to be altered to increase its thermal conductivity and employed as dielectric coolants.
Claims11
A heat transfer fluid comprising a modified Group I base oil, wherein the thermal conductivity of the modified Group I base oil is greater than 0.130 W/mk.
A method of modifying a Group I base oil, the method comprising,
- applying a Group I base oil to initiation on a catalyst surface to product a catalyzed Group I base oil;
- followed by
- feeding the catalyzed Group I base oil to thermal gas phase cracking, and
- collecting a modified Group I base oil in the liquid phase from the thermal gas phase cracking process.
