Solar desalination is one of the crucial methods to convert brackish water to freshwater. The
major issue of solar desalination is the low water production rate, and for this reason …

Parabolic trough solar collectors (PTSCs) are generally utilized to reach high temperatures
in solar-thermal applications. The current work investigates entropy production analysis and …

Thermal performance enhancement of solar air heaters is critical for efficient utilization of
energy. In the present work, a numerical study and parametric optimization of turbulent …

Over the years, the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) has been evolved as a substitute and
efficient numerical tool to mimic the single/multiphase fluid flow and transport problems. LBM …

The present study dealt with the numerical simulation of nanofluid flow in a double tube heat
exchanger equipped with twisted tape. Alumina/water nanofluid and pure water are …

Solar air heaters (SAHs) are popular solar energy collection systems due to their simple
design and construction. However, conventional SAHs face limitations, including a small …

A new design of Solar Air Heater (SAH) with spiral flow path is studied experimentally and
numerically. The spiral-shaped SAH performance is studied at various mass flow rates, inlet …

The main goal of this study is to investigate double-diffusive natural convection in a complex
enclosure containing two equilateral triangular obstacles. The triangles and the horizontal …
