Characterization And Preparation Of Zinc Oxide (Zno) Nano Fluids For Solar Thermal Applications

A. KANNAN

Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology  ·  Area of research: Mechanical Engineering

Abstract

This work is attempted to prepare nanofluids for solar thermal Application like Solar Still, Solar Water Heater etc. For that Zinc Oxide (Zno) Nanofluids with different weight concentration level have been tested for zeta potential, particle size of dispersion by using Horiba Zeta Sizer and Absorbency by using UV- vis-Spectrophotometer. Thermal conductivity of the prepared Nanofluids have been calculated using KD2 Thermal property Analyzer and compared the thermal conductivity of the various concentration of nanofluids.

Keywords
