“…Therefore, by controlling the loading concentration of the nanoparticles, and hence the internal structure of the nanofluid, up to 45% of the solar irradiance can potentially be absorbed and converted into electrical and thermal energy (figure 4(b)). It is feasible to consider that, through further refinement of the particle geometries, flow rate conditions, and the collector architecture, higher collector performances could potentially be achieved [13,14,25,31,49]. However, such investigations are outside the scope of this current work.…”

“…The majority of the nanofluids investigated and reported in the literature so far have largely focused on exploiting a narrow and monomodal size distribution of nanoparticles including the shape and/or composition [28,29]. This monomodal approach toward developing nanofluids has largely overlooked the possibility of combining a variety of different particle geometries, particle sizes, and/or compositions which could further enhance the eligibility of nanofluids for PVT applications [30,31].…”

“…Mixture ratio is the ratio of individual nanoparticle concentration in the total mix of the hybrid nanofluid. Experimental studies [45][46][47] have shown that to retrieve optimum thermophysical behaviors of hybrid nanofluids, with different nanoparticle types, an ideal mixture ratio should be known. The effect of mixture ratio on thermophysical properties of hybrid nanofluids was first explained by Hamid et al [45].…”

“…Their study observed a 30% increase in the overall efficiency of the PV/T system by using 0.026wt% Ag-SiO 2 nanofluid compared to when using water alone. A study by Wole-Osho et al [44] investigated the efficiency of a PV/T collector based on the effect of the mixture ratio of Al 2 O 3 -ZnO nanofluids. From the result, it was seen that at a mixture ratio of 0.47, an optimum thermal and electrical efficiency of 55.9% and 13.8%, respectively, were obtained.…”
