Study on radiation characteristics of Au-CuS nanofluids

The radiation characteristics of Au-CuS nanofluids are been researched and mainly used in seawater desalination.The nanoparticle films are placed on the surface of the water,and seawater evaporates by solar simulator irradiation.Then evaporation rate and evaporation efficiency under different experimental variables are calculated, which are applied to economic analysis. The results prove that Au-CuS nanofluids show a good prospect in seawater desalination.
