چکیده
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, volume fraction of nanoparticles, concentration ratio and receiver length has been investigated. the results show that, by increasing the volume fraction of nanoparticles, the performance of the solar parabolic collector enhances.

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...

The aim of this research was manufacturing a parabolic trough solar collector in which reflecting surface is made of mirror steel rather than usual mirror and also predicting its theoretical performance.by adjusting planar ⩝ -shaped structures parallel to each other and welding them together, the main supporting structure was assembled and a parabolic-shape Teflon arc was installed in the apert...
متن کامل2 00 7 A closed parabolic trough solar collector
Parabolic trough[1] is the most mature technology for large scale exploitation of solar energy. Several power plants based on this technology have been operational for years, and more are being built. However, the current technology suffers from a too high installation cost. This high cost makes it very hard to compete economically with fossil energy without government subsidies, compromising t...
متن کاملAn 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...
