Base Liquid

Ethylene glycol and propylene glycol are commonly used as thermal liquids in solar flat-plate collectors (FPCs). They are utilized as base liquid as well as for improving the stability of nanofluids in FPCs. The objective of the present paper is to introduce a renewable-derived bio glycol for use as base liquid in FPCs. The effect of base ratio (BR) of different glycol products on the performance of a conventional FPC and a nanofluidladen FPC is investigated in this paper to determine its suitability. MATLAB programming was employed for modeling the performance of the FPC operating with copper and cerium oxide nanomaterials. The results show that 20:80 bio glycol/water mixture is capable of enhancing the FPC’s energetic efficiency up to 72.1% which is higher than with either ethylene glycol and propylene glycol. The energy efficiency of a glycol-based nanofluid-filled FPC decreases with the base ratio of all three glycol products. Since bio glycol is a non-toxic and safe product, it can be utilized as a safe and environmentally-friend antifreeze and base liquid in nanofluid-filled FPCs.

The Stability

With advancement of nanoscience, ?nanofluids? are becoming quite popular among thermal engineers. High thermal conductivity, relatively less settling speed, and higher surface area of nanoparticles are a few key promoting properties. The last two decades have seen dramatic progress towards using nanoparticles in industrial applications. However, the stability and rheological characteristics of prepared nanofluids have serious effects on their transport characteristics, but unfortunately, this has not found proper attention from researchers. In this study, stability and rheological characteristics of ZnO nanoparticles within deionized water, ethylene glycol, and their blends have been extensively tested. Stability was observed using UV-vis spectroscopy, while the viscosity was measured with the help of a rheometer. The data was collected with 0.011-0.044 wt. % loading of nanoparticles, while experiments were conducted within 15-55oC temperature range. Better stability was recorded when nanofluids were prepared with pure ethylene glycol. Experiments showed that the viscosity increased with particle loading, whereas the effect of surfactants appeared to be insignificant. Research results were used to assess predictions of different viscosity models. Experimental data was overpredicted by Einstein, Brinkman, and Batchelor?s models.

Stability of nanofluids is one of the most important factors to ensure the most benefit of the properties of nanoparticles. Zinc oxide was used in the research with concentration between (0.2-1) wt. % with ethylene glycol base fluid. The stability of ZnO nanofluid was enhanced by adding two types of surfactants Tx-100 and Gum Arabic with concentration of (0.1-0.5) vol. % to stabilize the ZnO nanoparticles in the base fluid. The results showed that the Gum Arabic surfactant led to more stable fluid than that of Tx-100; this was shown from zeta potential and UV spectroscopy measurements. The thermal conductivity coefficient was also measured, and the results showed that the thermal conductivity increased with adding surfactant than without using a stabilizer.
