Abstract
As the primary energy source derived from the sun, solar energy is widely utilized in various technologies, including photovoltaic cells as well as the solar types of energy plates, street lights, and water pumping. This era is about studying solar radiations and a way to active enhancements in solar power pump (SWP) efficacy with the use of solar radiations and nanotechnology. Communication is structured to examine the capability of SWP in terms of transfer of heat using a hybrid nanofluid passing through a parabolic trough surface collector (PTSC) placed inside the pipeline of SWP. Solar radiation has been considered a heat source. The performance in terms of heat transfer of the SWP is scrutinized for various effects like porous media, viscous dissipation, radiative heat flux, and Cattaneo-Christov heat flux (C-CHF). Entropy generation analysis is also conducted for Prandtl - Eyring fluid (P-EF). The simulated momentum and energy equations were solved using the Keller box technique, which is a well-known numerical approach. For this work, Prandtl - Eyring hybrid nanofluid (P-EHNF) has been considered, consisting of double diverse kinds of nanotubes (NT), including single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) in the rich, viscous fluid of kind Sodium Alginate (SA). The impact of various parameters on velocity, temperature fields, shear stress, coefficient of drag force, and Nusselt number are investigated and demonstrated in graphs and tables. The SWP experience an enhancement in the transfer of heat for amplification of the parameters of thermal radiative flow as well as viscous dissipation. In comparison with conventional nanofluid, hybrid nanofluid performs better in heat transmission. The thermal efficacy of MWCNT/SWCNT-SA over SWCNT-SA got down to a minimal level of 39.9% and peaked at 42.2%.
