An experimental investigation on the performance of a symmetric conical solar collector using SiO2/water nanofluid
One of the effective methods to improve the thermal efficiency of solar collectors is using nanofluids as the coolant. The present study experimentally investigated the effect of SiO2/water nanofluid with 1% mass fraction on the performance of a symmetric collector, i.e. conical solar collector. The conical solar collector with 1 m2 area and normal to the earth was tested in Ahvaz, a city in th...
متن کاملEnergy, economic and environmental analysis of metal oxides nanofluid for flat-plate solar collector
For a solar thermal system, increasing the heat transfer area can increase the output temperature of the system. However, this approach leads to a bigger and bulkier collector. It will then increase the cost and energy needed to manufacture the solar collector. This study is carried out to estimate the potential to design a smaller solar collector that can produce the same desired output temper...
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...

متن کاملThe Possibility of using Flat Plate Solar Collector Based on the Best Calculated Tilt Angle in the City of Rasht as a Case Study (TECHNICAL NOTE)
The possibility of using flat plate collector in northern parts of Iran specially city of Rasht has been investigated in this paper. According to the high humidity in the northern parts of this country, diffuse radiation plays a more important role than direct radiation. This fact can change the results of delivered solar energy and the best tilt angle of the collector compared to the sunny cen...
