Abstract

Thermal energy storage system is one type of the system used to store the energy in different industrial applications. Thermal performance of the system is important to analyze when it has been operated with nanofluids. There is lot of energy is wasted from many process which can be utilized for the another process such as to preheat the water. In the present paper, the effect of water based nanofluids is studied to store the energy and results have been compared with base fluid. It was observed the nanofluid have more capacity to store the energy as compared to the base fluid because of it superior thermal transport properties. The pressure drop is also slightly higher than of base fluid. The thermal storage capacity of the system is significantly increased when it has been used with nanofluids as compared to base fluid under the same operating condition.
