Abstract


Abstract

In this developing world, energy demand is growing day by day. But due to the scarcity and continuous depletion of conventional fuels, Renewable energy is an alternative source. Among all renewable energies, we have solar energy in abundance and solar collectors are commonly used to produce the energy. The fluids suffer from poor thermal and heat absorption properties which are conventional are used in solar collectors as the heat transfer medium. This study was performed in an open environment in bright sunlight. The solar water heater was used for this review study to investigate the effect of sunlight on the Nano-fluids.

Keywords: Solar flat plate collector, Nano fluid, solar radiation, Energy
