摘要

The heat absorber uses in solar power plants have generally low energy adaptation owing to large emissive losses at high temperature. Recently, nanofluid based solar energy absorber have acknowledged immense scientific curiosity to competent share and store the thermal energy. Here we examine theoretically the natural convective flow of an Ag nanoparticle based nanofluid flow along an inclined flat sheet embedded in a Darcy-Forchheimer permeable medium coexistence of solar radiation. By use of similarity transformations, the fundamental partial differential system and boundary conditions are tackled numerically using Runge-Kutta Gill based shooting procedure. The impacts of governing parameters upon the flow, temperature, Nusselt number and skin friction coefficient are represented tabular as well as in graphical form.
