Abstract
This Experimental investigation deals about the inlet and outlet temperature variation on Flat Plate Collector by using Silicon carbide as a nanofluid compared with normal water with sequence of time interval in the same operating arrangement. Nanofluid provides significant improvement in the heat transfer rate with respect to temperature difference. So only temperature difference only consider for this investigation because here area of the heat transfer is constant for both cases without and with Nanoparticles.
