A comprehensive analysis on effectiveness of compound parabolic collector and thermal enhancement using nanofluids Mohammad Ishrar Jiva, Mohsin Dadi, Laveet Kumar International Journal of Low Carbon Technologies, 2025 This review article examines two critical aspects of solar thermal energy: compound parabolic collectors (CPCs) and nanofluids. It evaluates CPC designs, especially when used with evacuated tube collectors, analyzing their impact on energy capture and system performance. The study also investigates nanofluids’ potential to enhance thermal conductivity in solar collectors. Current market trends and research patterns in CPC technology are explored, highlighting the underrepresentation of developing nations like India in this field. The article identifies areas for improvement, including optimized tracking systems and novel nanofluid compositions, concluding with a discussion on the broader implications for the solar energy sector and sustainable energy transition.
Experimental investigation of a hybrid compound parabolic collector integrated with flow through-type evacuated tube collector under hot and humid conditions in India Mohammad Ishrar Jiva, Mohsin J. Dadi, Vijayalaxmi V B, Amit Manubhai Patel, Jeetendra Dhamone, Choon Kit Chan Applied Chemical Engineering, 2025 This study offers an experimental analysis of a hybrid solar thermal collector that is best suited for the summer climate in Vadodara, Gujarat, India. It combines a Compound Parabolic Collector (CPC) with a flow-through type Evacuated Tube Collector (ETC). Three types of reflector materials were examined: polished aluminum, glass mirror, and acrylic mirror. The control was an independent ETC unit. Every configuration ran at a flow rate of 1.0 L/min. The temperature outside reached 43°C during the tests, and the maximum solar intensity was 1050 W/m². The aluminum CPC-ETC system demonstrated superior performance, achieving 82°C outlet temperature compared to 63°C for the ETC-only baseline - representing a 30% improvement. Daily heat gain increased by 99% from 42.3 MJ/day (ETC-only) to 84.2 MJ/day (aluminum CPC-ETC). The aluminum reflector configuration achieved an average thermal efficiency of 66% compared to 50% for the standalone ETC system, demonstrating a 32% relative improvement. The findings show that under tropical summer conditions, CPC-ETC systems have an increased thermal potential.
