SolarNano is the research group focused at development of novel nanofluid-based applications for solar energy. We are particularly interested in:
– direct absorption solar collectors with nanofluid
– selective evaporation of organic fluids
– solar generators for micro-CHP
– solar desalinators and disinfectors
– solar/geothermal cogeneration
Our inter-disciplinary team joins 3 universities:
NRNU Moscow Engineering Physics University
Western Norway University of Applied Sciences
We acknowledge support from:
UH-Nett Vest, project “Novel solar energy systems for Northern conditions”
Russian Science Foundation, project “Nanofluids for renewable heat applications”
Russian Foundation for Basic Research, project “Nanofluids for solar desalination”
