A review of the applications of nanofluids in solar energy

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the effects of nanofluids on the performance of solar collectors and solar water heaters from the efficiency, economic and environmental considerations viewpoints, and made some suggestions to use the nanoparticles in different solar thermal systems such as photovoltaic/thermal systems, solar ponds, solar thermoelectric cells, and so on.
Journal ArticleDOI

Measurement of temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and viscosity of TiO2-water nanofluids

TL;DR: In this article, a transient hot-wire apparatus is used for measuring the thermal conductivity of nanofluids whereas the Bohlin rotational rheometer (Malvern Instrument) is used to measure the viscosity of nanometres.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enhancement of heat transfer using nanofluids—An overview

TL;DR: A colloidal mixture of nano-sized particles in a base fluid, called nanofluids, tremendously enhances the heat transfer characteristics of the original fluid, and is ideally suited for practical applications due to its marvelous characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Critical review of heat transfer characteristics of nanofluids

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarize recent developments in research on the heat transfer characteristics of nanofluids for the purpose of suggesting some possible reasons why the suspended nanoparticles can enhance the heat-transfer of conventional fluids and to provide a guide line or perspective for future research.
Journal ArticleDOI

A critical review of convective heat transfer of nanofluids

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarized the published subjects with respect to the forced convective heat transfer of the nanofluids both of experimental and numerical investigation, and they also evaluated the effective viscosity.
