Abstract:

Global warming and energy depletion are the main problems faced in recent years due to energy consumption by industries and the global population. Phase change materials (PCMs) with significant properties tend to store and release energy and fill the demand and supply gap. Most organic and inorganic PCMs are not considered environmentally eco-friendly when used for thermal energy storage (TES). Because they are formed from non-conventional energy resources, their carbon footmark and environmental effect are not ignored. To reduce problems, an urgent need for eco-friendly materials is required.

Abstract:

Solid–liquid phase-change materials (PCMs) have attracted considerable attention in heat energy storage due to their appropriate phase-transition temperatures and high thermal storage density. The primary issues that need to be addressed in the wide application of traditional PCMs are easy leakage during solid–liquid phase transitions, low thermal conductivity, and poor energy conversion function. The heat transfer properties of PCMs can be improved by compounding with carbon materials. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are widely used in PCMs for heat storage because of their high thermal conductivity,

Abstract:

ABSTRACTPhase change materials (PCMs) are getting increasing interest due to their capacity to absorb, store and release heat energy. Their effectiveness is characterized by quantities of absorbed/released heat energy, expressed as enthalpy. Specifically, the larger is the enthalpy, the more efficient thermoregulation effect is achieved. With this in mind, PCMs can be used in the manufacture of thermally regulated clothing in order to minimize heat strain and simultaneously improve thermal comfort. Moreover, such materials also modify their infrared radiation emission during phase transition,

Abstract:

Phase change materials possess a unique combination of properties, which includes a pronounced property contrast between the amorphous and crystalline state, i.e., high electrical and optical contrast. In particular, the latter observation is indicative of a considerable structural difference between the amorphous and crystalline state, which furthermore is characterized by a very high vacancy concentration unknown from common semiconductors. Through the use of ab initio calculations, this work shows how the electric and optical contrast is correlated with structural differences between the cr

Abstract:

Experimental work has been undertaken to improve the thermal conductivity of the Phase Change Material (PCM), Paraffin Wax (PW) by adding Alumina and Copper particles in increased mass fractions to elevate thermal energy storage efficiency. Composite PCMs of PW-Alumina and PW-Copper with 5%,10% and 15% mass fractions were prepared by sonication. Morphology of microstructures of PW and composite PCMs were examined using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Thermophysical properties were measured using Standard testing methods. Latent heat and Specific heat were recorded with Differential Scannin

Abstract:

Phase change materials (PCMs) as thermal energy storage medium are proven to be effective to enhance the performance of solar thermal system. The degradation of the thermal properties due to thermal cycles is changeable and accordingly the performance of the solar thermal cycle may decline. In this study, the thermal reliability of paraffin wax was investigated to analyse the ability to be used as thermal energy storage (TES) for solar water heating purposes that subjected to many phase change cycles. The mixtures were subjected to 400 phase change cycles and the thermal properties were measur

The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of the available gypsum based composite including various phase change materials employed to increase the thermal energy storage capacity of building materials. A wide range of materials such as n-alkane, saturated fatty acid, fatty acid esters etc are used as phase change materials. Adding carbonaceous material (carbon nanofibers, activated nanocarbon, graphite nanosheets etc.) to augment some properties is also a common practice. In addition, there are presented the methods of obtaining the nano/macro-composites together with some thermal

Abstract:

Nowadays, the growing concern about improving thermal comfort in different structures (textiles, buildings, and pavements, among others) has stimulated research into phase change materials (PCMs). The direct incorporation of PCMs into composite materials can cause mechanical impacts. Therefore, this study focuses on the design of phase change coaxial fibres (PCFs), using commercial cellulose acetate (CA) or recycled CA obtained from cotton fabrics (CAt) as the sheath and polyethylene glycol (PEG) 2000 as the core, via the wet spinning method; the fibres vary in molecular weight, concentration

This study aimed to calculate the heat losses from the building through walls, windows, and waste energy in boiler flue gases, where the problem of this study is to reduce the heat loss through the building using phase change materials and to extract the waste energy from boiler flue gas and store it in phase change materials as a thermal mass storage. The study revealed a group of results among which by adding a new layer from phase change material to the wall, it behaves as a thermal insulation due to low thermal conductivity and contributed to reduce heat loss through walls by (72%).
