I discussed a master's thesis in the College of Engineering at the University of Basrah, and it included the thesis entitled (Performance improvements for the parabolic complex using nanofluid technology).
For the student Ahmed Ismail Hadi The thesis aims to develop a mathematical model to study the performance of solar energy
The thesis discussed the proposed model consists of three parts, the first part is the solar radiation model, which is used to estimate the amount of solar radiation that falls on the ground, the second part and the optical model, this part has the ability to determine the optical efficiency of the solar complex, and the last part is the thermal model. The goal of this section is Estimating the amount of energy collected by different types of fluids, and this model calculates the thermal losses, thermal efficiency and external temperature of the fluid. The proposed model has been implemented in the MATLAB program.
