Thermal assessment of solar concentrated system with utilizing CNT nanoparticles and complicated helical turbulator

M. Sheikholeslami et al.

Summary: The turbulent flow of nanomaterial (a mixture of CNT and water) within a circular tube of a solar system absorber was numerically simulated in this article. The tube was equipped with a complex swirl flow device to enhance fluid-wall interaction and achieve warmer fluid. Ten mirrors were used to concentrate solar radiation, and the geometric parameters were calculated to optimize optical performance. The simulation employed a K-epsilon model based on the finite volume method. The results showed that increasing the CNT fraction improved thermal performance, and changing the pitch ratio and flow rate had significant effects on friction factor and convective factor.

Tribology Performance of Polyol-Ester Based TiO2, SiO2, and Their Hybrid Nanolubricants

Abdul Hamid Hamisa et al.

Summary: The tribology properties of TiO2/POE, SiO2/POE, and TiO2-SiO2/POE nanolubricants were investigated for an automotive air-conditioning system with an electrically-driven compressor (EDC). The lowest coefficient of friction (COF) and wear scar diameter (WSD) were achieved at specific volume concentrations for each nanolubricant. Mono and hybrid nanolubricants with volume concentrations of less than 0.05% are recommended for use in air-conditioning systems with EDC due to their excellent tribology performances.

Effect of active multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) on the energy storage density of DI water for cool thermal storage system

Anbalagan Sathishkumar et al.

Summary: This research investigates the energy saving aspects in cool thermal energy storage system (CTES) by improving the thermophysical properties of deionized (DI) water. The dispersion of chemically functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (f-MWCNT) in DI water is studied experimentally, and the influence on phase change enthalpy, specific heat, thermal conductivity, and cooling rate is examined. The findings demonstrate that the dispersion of f-MWCNT enhances the thermal conductivity and cooling rate of the water, reducing subcooling and enabling CTES system to operate at higher temperatures.

Review on aqueous graphene nanoplatelet Nanofluids: Preparation, Stability, thermophysical Properties, and applications in heat exchangers and solar thermal collectors

Tahsinul Huq et al.

Summary: This review provides an in-depth analysis of the preparation, stability, and thermophysical properties of graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) nanofluids, and explores their applications in heat exchangers, solar thermal collectors, and heat pipes. The study finds that covalently functionalised GNP nanofluids outperform non-covalently functionalised in terms of stability and heat transfer coefficients. As particle size decreases, stability and heat transfer performance improve, while thermal conductivity and convection coefficients increase with nanofluid concentration and temperature.

Summary: The rapid development of nanotechnology in the past decade has created numerous opportunities for researchers and engineers. Nanofluids, created by suspending nanoparticles in conventional heat transfer carriers, offer significant advantages in thermal properties. This study addresses the challenge of nanofluid stability and analyzes various forces and physical phenomena affecting the stability. Stable and highly conductive nanofluids can be produced through one-step or two-step production methods, but both methods face the problem of nanoparticle agglomeration.

Xuan Dong et al.

Summary: Phase-change based energy storage offers a solution to the mismatch between energy production and consumption. Experimental measurements and simulations demonstrate that smaller diameter PCM balls and higher flow rate of chilled water can achieve a higher freezing rate. When used in cold storage systems, the diameter of PCM balls should be carefully chosen based on the capacity of cold energy and freezing duration limits.
