Abstract

This work consists in studying the effect of the volume fraction on the thermophysical properties of three metal oxide nanofluids; titanium dioxide “TiO2”, copper oxide “CuO” and aluminum dioxide “Al2O3” dispersed in water, with the aim of using the nanofluids to reach Our goal is to improve the efficiency of solar energy systems by improving heat transfer and performance. This work allows to solve them by computer software. The model is performed with volume concentrations from 0% to 5%. The results obtained show that the thermal conductivity of TiO2/Water, CuO/Water and Al2O3/Water is increased by 7%, 8% and 9% respectively, as well as the specific heat decreases with the increase of the nanoparticles concentration.
