Determination of Parabolic Trough Solar Collector Efficiency Using Al2O3/Synthetic Oil Nanofluid: A Comprehensive Numerical Study with The Effect of Wind Velocity, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Shamloo, Amir (Supervisor) ; Kazemzadeh Hannani, Siamak (Supervisor)
Abstract
Due to significant reduction in fossil fuel sources; several researches have been conducted recently to explore modern sources of renewable energy. One of the major fields in the category of renewable energy harnessing devices is parabolic trough solar collectors (PTC). Several parameters have effect on the overall efficiency of the PTC’s.As the effect of these parameters is coupled to each other, a comprehensive investigation is necessary.In the present study a numerical analysis is performed to examine the efficiency of PTCs via variation of several governing parameters (e.g. wind velocity magnitude, nanoparticles volume fraction, inlet temperature and reflector’s orientation). A detailed...
