Experimental Investigation of the Thermal Performance of Vacuum Tube Solar Collectors (VTSC) Using Alumina Nanofluids
The enhancement of the thermal performance of Vacuum Tube Solar Collectors (VTSC) was studied by using alumina nanofluid as working fluid. VTSC is a simple and commonly utilized type of collector. This study established the heat transfer experimental model of all glass VTSCs used in a forced-circulation solar water heating system using alumina nanofluid as base fluid. Al2O3 (with an average par...
متن کاملNumerical analysis of thermal-hydraulic properties of turbulent aerosol-carbon black nanofluid flow in corrugated solar collectors with double application
In this study the effects of corrugated absorber plate and using aerosol-carbon black nanofluid on heat transfer and turbulent flow in solar collectors with double application and air heating collectors, were numerically investigated. The two-dimensional continuity, momentum and energy equation were solved by finite volume and SIMPLE algorithm. In the present investigation all the simulations w...
متن کاملNumerical analysis of performance of solar parabolic trough collector with Cu-Water nanofluid
In the present work the effect of Cu-Water nanofluid, as heat transfer fluid, on the performance of a parabolic solar collector was studied numerically. The temperature field, thermal efficiency, mean-outlet temperatures have been evaluated and compared for the conventional parabolic collectors and nanofluid based collectors. Further, the effect of various parameters such as fluid velocity, vol...
متن کاملMulti-objective and thermodynamic optimisation of a parabolic trough receiver with perforated plate inserts
In this paper, multi-objective and thermodynamic optimisation procedures are used to investigate the performance of a parabolic trough receiver with perforated plate inserts. Three dimensionless perforated plate geometrical parameters considered in the optimisation include the dimensionless orientation angle, the dimensionless plate diameter and the plate spacing per unit meter. The Reynolds nu...
متن کاملParabolic trough solar collector for low enthalpy processes: An analysis of the efficiency enhancement by using twisted tape inserts
Concentrated solar energy is a promising source of energy which is currently attracting many efforts to enhance its exploitation. In particular, parabolic trough collectors for low enthalpy processes is an emerging technology. Lately, many work is done focused on the improvement of these devices. One technique to achieve this is by augmenting the heat transfer in the receiver tube by inserting ...
