This study examines the application of hybrid nanofluids as a viable working fluid in thermal energy storage units, specifically emphasizing their capacity to enhance system efficiency. The study emphasizes the efficacy of hybrid nanofluids, which consist of oil and nanoparticles, as efficient heat transfer fluids in thermal energy storage and heat transmission systems based on solar energy. The key results emphasize the exceptional heat transmission properties of multi-walled carbon nanotubes and alumina NPs when distributed in different base fluids. In addition, phase change materials such as erythritol and nitrate salt are identified as well-suited options for effectively storing thermal energy. During periods of low sunshine, the stored energy becomes extremely important, providing a consistent and dependable energy source. The adoption of hybrid nanofluids for thermal energy storage implementation fundamentally includes a variety of solar collectors, with 54% consisting of hybrid nanofluids.
