CFD modelling of different properties of nanofluids in header and riser tube of flat plate solar collector

This paper aimed to evaluate the state of three different flow parameters of nanofluids and hybrid nanofluids flowing through inside header and riser tube of flat plate solar collector. This research work studied with Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelling method using nanofluids (Al2O3, TiO2,...
