Recently, scientists have explored ways to improve the efficiency of solar-thermal harvesting by developing new solar receivers and by working with nanofluids.
#Researchers patent a nanofluid that improves heat conductivity Researchers at the Universitat Jaume I (UJI) have developed
and patented a nanofluid improving thermal conductivity at temperatures up to 400°C without assuming an increase in costs
The nanofluid developed by the Multiphase Fluids research group at the UJI is the first capable of working at high temperatures (up to 400°C
The cost of this new nanofluid (to which nanoparticles are added in order to enhance and improve heat conductivity) is similar to that of the base fluid,
after testing the thermal properties of the nanofluid and patenting this new technology, the research group has started the phase of searching industrial partners
either to transfer the nanofluid over to them or with whom applications can be researched jointly and developed.
Finally, Juliá notes that the method employed to produce the nanofluid is easily scalable to the industrial level,
the nanofluid developed is based on a heat transfer oil (diphenyl/diphenyl oxide) that is widely used in industry,
