What is Thermodynamic optimisation of the performance of a parabolic trough receiver using synthetic oil–Al 2 O 3 nanofluid about?

## h i g h l i g h t s Thermodynamic analysis of a parabolic trough receiver with nanofluids is presented. Syltherm800-Al 2 O 3 nanofluid is used as the heat transfer fluid in the receiver. ## Influence of nanoparticle volume fraction on receiver performance is investigated. There is an optimal Reynolds number at each temperature and volume fraction. Receiver thermal and thermodynamic performance improves below some Reynolds number.
