متن کاملPerformance Evaluation of a Nanofluid-Based Direct Absorption Solar Collector with Parabolic Trough Concentrator
Application of solar collectors for hot water supply, space heating, and cooling plays a significant role in reducing building energy consumption. For conventional solar collectors, solar radiation is absorbed by spectral selective coating on the collectors' tube/plate wall. The poor durability of the coating can lead to an increased manufacturing cost and unreliability for a solar collector op...
متن کاملDirect Absorption Solar Collector using Carbon Nanotubes Nanofluid: An Experimental Investigation
In this study, the efficiency of direct absorption solar collector (DASC) using carbon nanotube nanofluid in the mixture of water and ethylene glycol as the base fluid was experimentally investigated and compared with the efficiency of the flat plate solar collector (FPSC). The results show that the maximum efficiency of the DASC using the base fluid and absorptive bottom surface is about 4.7% ...
متن کاملNanofluid optical property characterization: towards efficient direct absorption solar collectors
Suspensions of nanoparticles (i.e., particles with diameters < 100 nm) in liquids, termed nanofluids, show remarkable thermal and optical property changes from the base liquid at low particle loadings. Recent studies also indicate that selected nanofluids may improve the efficiency of direct absorption solar thermal collectors. To determine the effectiveness of nanofluids in solar applications,...
متن کاملExperimental investigation on performance comparison of nanofluid-based direct absorption and flat plate solar collectors
In the present work, a prototype of a new type of solar collectors, which called Direct Absorption Solar Collector, was built and its thermal performance is experimentally compared with conventional flat plate solar collector under transient and steady state conditions. Different volume fractions of multi wall carbon nanotubes in water and ethylene glycol mixture (70%:30% in volume) were used a...
