Flat plate solar collector performance using alumina nanofluids: Experimental characterization and efficiency tests.

Solar energy has become an important renewable energy source for reducing the use of fossil fuels and to mitigate global warming, for which solar collectors constitute a technology that is to be promoted. The use of nanofluids can increase the efficiency of solar into thermal energy conversion in so...
