| dc.description.abstract | This paper theoretically analyzes entropy generation heat transfer enhancement capabilities and pressure drop of an absorbing medium with suspended nanoparticles (Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> CuO SiO<inf>2</inf> TiO <inf>2</inf> dispersed in water) inside a flat plate solar collector. Steady laminar axial flow of a nanofluid is considered. These nanofluids considered have different nanoparticles volume fractions and volume flow rates in the range of 1-4% and 1-4 L/min respectively. Based on the analytical results the CuO nanofluid could reduce the entropy generation by 4.34% and enhance the heat transfer coefficient by 22.15% theoretically compared to water as an absorbing fluid. It also has a small penalty in the pumping power by 1.58%. © 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. © 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. | |
