Abstract
Photo-thermal evaporation of nanofluids has potential applications in solar desalination, micro-CHP (combined heat and power) and domestic off-grid disinfection. In this research, we reproduced the process experimentally using 110-nm iron oxide particles dispersed in water. At an initial lab-scale stage, under the artificial radiation of 6.9 suns, we observed that the boiling nanofluid destabilizes to a suspension of 6µm agglomerates of nanoparticles and that up to 30% of the particles escape the system with the steam. At the prototype stage, we boiled the fluid in a solar concentrator producing 35 g/min steam with an efficiency of around 60%, which is sufficient to drive a small turbine. The optimum concentration of the nanoparticles was 3 wt%. To supplement the experiments, we developed a simplified model for engineering calculations of the solar steam generation rate. The model corresponds well to the experiments deviating by only 8%.
