The research about nanofluids has been explosively increasing due to their fascinating properties in heat or mass transportation, fluidity, and dispersion stability for energy system applications (e.g., solar collectors, refrigeration, heat pipes, and energy storage). This second part of the review summarizes recent research on application of TiO2 nanofluids and identifies the challenges and opportunities for the further exploration of TiO2 nanofluids. It is expected that the two exhaustive reviews could be a helpful reference guide for researchers to update the knowledge on research status of TiO2 nanofluids, and the critical comments, challenges, and recommendations could be useful for future study directions.

In this article, plasmonic nanopaerticles (PNP) were used to improve the solar thermal conversion efficiency and the abortion prosperity under eight different wavelength spectrum was compared.Gold nanoparticles (GNP) is synthesized through an improved citrate-reduction method, which was used to illustrate the photo-thermal conversion of PNPs under a solar simulator with eight filters. Experimental results showed that the best light intensities at wavelength of 710 nm could reach 0.004 W/cm 2 when applied to two suns. With the increase of the irradiation time, the GNP temperature increased linearly and the temperature could be increased by 3.5 K within 300 s. In addition, there were no infrared, no visible light, and no UV filters utilized to compare GNP photothermal conversion efficiencies in three main spectrum regions. As eight filters were applied in the current experiment, more specified wavelength spectrum and longer time need to be tested for the purpose of optimisation.

The aim of the present study is to analyze the magnetohydrodynamic micropolar Carreau nano uid ow past a stretching sheet. Viscous dissipation, internal heating, Joule heating, and linear thermal radiation e ects are also incorporated into the energy equation. The system of governing PDEs is transformed into the ODEs by invoking the similarity transformation. The shooting method is implemented to solve the system of ODEs. The in uence of pertinent parameters on ow distributions is analyzed graphically and discussed in detail. The uid motion upsurges for the larger values of the Weissenberg number and the material parameter, while the reverse situation is studied in the thermal and concentration pro les.
