    Abstract: This disclosure relates to heat transfer fluids for use in heat transfer systems. The heat transfer fluids comprise at least one non-aqueous dielectric heat transfer fluid. The non-aqueous dielectric heat transfer fluid has density (ρ), specific heat (cp), and dynamic viscosity (μ) properties. The heat transfer fluids have a normalized effectiveness factor (NEFfluid) as determined by the following equation: N ⁢ E ⁢ F fluid = D ⁢ E ⁢ F fluid D ⁢ E ⁢ F reference ; wherein DEFfluid is a dimensional effectiveness factor for the heat transfer fluid that is determined based on an equation designated in Table 1 below for a selected pump and a selected heat transfer circuit dominant flow regime; wherein DEFreference is a dimensional effectiveness factor for a reference fluid that is determined using the same equation designated in Table 1 for DEFfluid above for the same selected pump and the same selected heat transfer circuit dominant flow regime; and TABLE 1 (Heat Transfer Fluid and Reference Fluid) Selected Heat Transfer Circuit Flow Regime Selected Pump

    Abstract: Provided is a method for improving oxidation resistance and deposit resistance of a lubricating oil for use in lubricating a mechanical component. The method includes the step of providing the lubricating oil to the mechanical component and measuring the improved oxidation and deposit resistance. The lubricating oil includes a lubricating oil base stock at from 0 to 80 wt %, at least one branched isoparaffin having a mole % of epsilon carbon as measured by C13 NMR of less than or equal to 10% at from 20 to 80 wt %, at least one viscosity modifier at from 5 to 20 wt %, and one or more other lubricating oil additives. The oxidation resistance in the CEC L-109 oxidation resistance test is improved to greater than 310 hours to achieve a 100% viscosity increase and the deposit resistance in the TEOST 33C is improve to total deposits of less than 45 mg as compared to oxidation resistance and deposit resistance achieved using a lubricating oil not containing the at least one branched isoparaffin.

    Abstract: This disclosure relates to heat transfer fluids for use in an apparatus having a heat transfer system. In one embodiment, the heat transfer fluids have at least one Group IV base oil, as a major component; at least one phenolic antioxidant, as a minor component; and optionally an aminic antioxidant in an amount less than about 0.25 weight percent, based on the total weight of the heat transfer fluid. In another embodiment, the heat transfer fluids have at least one Group V base oil, as a major component; and a mixture of at least two antioxidants, as a minor component. The at least one Group IV base oil and the at least one Group V base oil have a kinematic viscosity (KV100) from about 0.5 cSt to about 12 cSt at 100° C. The mixture of at least two antioxidants has a phenolic antioxidant and an aminic antioxidant. This disclosure further relates to methods for improving thermal-oxidative stability of a heat transfer fluid used in an apparatus having a heat transfer system.
