The viscosity of nanofluids, and consequently their energy dissipation, is a challenging factor in real applications because it affects the pressure drop and pumping power of equipment in industries. The aim of this experimental and simulation study is to measure and calculate the viscosity of a carbon nanotube (CNT)-water nanofluid by employing a rotational viscometer and by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. The effects of temperature, solid concentration, and CNT diameter on the dynamic viscosity were examined within the temperature and volume concentration ranges of 25-65 °C and 0.125
