Abstract
Globally, a significant amount of energy is spent to produce hot water for processing industries, domestic requirements, commercial buildings, and so on. In such cases, the deployment of solar water heating systems has been identified as a competent solution, considering their environment-friendly operation and affordability. In the current work, an investigation was piloted to examine the influence of deploying nano-CeO2/water nanofluid as circulating fluid in an evacuated tube solar water heater (ETSWH) at mass fluxes of 1.002 kg/min and 10.02 kg/min, respectively. The outcomes revealed that the incorporation of nano-CeO2/water nanofluid boosted the ETSWH system’s peak temperature gradient and daily average efficacy to 40 °C and 75%, respectively.
