Assessment of thermohydraulic performance and entropy generation in an evacuated tube solar collector employing pure water and nanofluids as working fluids

Assessment of thermohydraulic performance and entropy generation in an evacuated tube solar collector employing pure water and nanofluids as working fluids

This study conducts a numerical comparison of the thermal performance of three distinct working fluids (pure water, TiO2, and SiO2 water-based nanofluids) within an evacuated tube solar collector using Computational Fluid Dynamics. The study evaluates thermohydraulic performance alongside global and...
