Thermal transport energy performance on tangent hyperbolic hybrid nanofluids and their implementation in concentrated solar aircraft wings

Abstract

The primary heat source from the sunlight is solar energy (SE), which is used in photovoltaic (PV) panels, solar power plates, PV, streetlights, and solar-based hybrid nanocomposites. Currently, research is focused on analyzing and improving the efficiency of SE, particularly for powering aircraft, by combining solar power with nanotechnology advancements. As such, this study focuses on examining concentrated solar power and proposes a method to improve the performance of solar airplanes by employing nanotechnology. Furthermore, the work is based on the investigation of the flow rate, thermal distribution, and entropy generation of the magnetized tangent hyperbolic hybrid nanofluid (HNF) along the interior parabolic solar trough collector of an aircraft wing. This work utilizes similarity variables to simplify the partial derivative model into ordinary differential equations. These equations are then solved using the Galerkin weighted residual approach with the help of MATHEMATICA 11.3 software. From the obtained outcomes, it is reflected that the HNFs have high thermal conductivity than the NF. Intensification of Weissenberg number improves the performance of airplane wings subjected to heat transmission. Therefore, this research contributes to improved thermal management in advanced nanotechnology and solar aircraft.
