Correction Theauthorswouldliketocorrectthefollowingstate- ment within section ‘Dependence of k nf on other para- meters’ in our published paper [1]: However, based on experimental data, Timofeeva et al. [53] reported that k nf increases with the incensement of nanoparticle diameter for SiC-water nanofluid which can be explained by the change of Kapitza resistance contribution for par ticles with different diameters and interface areas.
