Abstract : One of the main problems of human beings today is the use of fossil fuels. To solve this problem and worry about the energy crisis due to lack of these resources, renewable energy can be replaced. One of the largest sources of clean energy is solar energy, which can be used in solar thermal power plants. In this study, aluminum oxide nanofluid with water has been used in the linear parabolic solar thermal combined heat and power plant with Rankin cycle and the energy and exergy efficiency of this power plant has been used by the nanofluid and the storage tank has been investigated. The plant also has an energy storage tank with molten salt to provide the amount of energy needed at night in the absence of sunlight. The energy analysis and exergy equations of this power plant have been done with the help of EES software. The result of this analysis demonstrate that the exergy efficiency of the solar system is 16/27% and the energy efficiency is 59/72%.
