Temperature Control in (Translucent) Phase Change Materials Applied in Facades: A Numerical Study

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
Phase change materials (PCMs) are materials that can store large amounts of heat during their phase transition from solid to liquid without a significant increase in temperature. While going from liquid to solid this heat is again released.

Colloidal Opaline Composites as Throughput‐Scalable, Fully Transparent, and Color‐Tunable Radiative Cooling Exterior Films for Outdoor Photovoltaics

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Particular thermal metamaterials are widely used as daytime radiative coolers merely by embedding thermally emissive nanoparticles (NPs) in liquid resins to form scalable, yet highly efficient cooling films in a cost‐effective way. However, randomly dispersed NPs, prevalently used thus far, cause strong scattering, limiting NP content and cooling ...

Velocity and Passive Scalar Cross Spectra in Stably and Unstably Stratified Grid Turbulence

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2007
The effects of stable and unstable thermal stratifications on the cross spectra between passive scalar (dye concentration) fluctuation c and vertical velocity fluctuation υ in shear-free grid turbulence are investigated using previously published

Fast‐Responding O2 Gas Sensor Based on Luminescent Europium Metal‐Organic Frameworks (MOF‐76)

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Luminescent MOF‐76 materials based on Eu(III) and mixed Eu(III)/Y(III) show rapid and reversible changes in emission intensity in response to O2 with very short response times. The effect is based on triplet quenching of the linker ligands that act as photosensitizers. Average emission lifetimes of a few milliseconds turn out to be mostly unaffected by

New perspectives in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection

open access: yesThe European Physical Journal E : Soft matter, 2012
Recent experimental, numerical and theoretical advances in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection are presented. Particular emphasis is given to the physics and structure of the thermal and velocity boundary layers which play a key role for the better ...

Supramolecular Liquid Crystal Elastomer Adhesives: Role of Internal Damping and Hydrogen Bonding

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The adhesion strength can be significantly enhanced through the molecular design of supramolecular liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) that combine high internal damping from mesogen reorientation with abundant hydrogen‐bonding moieties. Solvent vapor annealing enables reversible, non‐thermal control of adhesion, offering potential for heat‐sensitive ...

Differentiating the Synergistic Interactions Between Li+ Salts and Cyclic to Linear Carbonate Ratios to Enable Wide‐Temperature Performance of Lithium‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The coordination in carbonate solvents and degradation products of lithium difluoro(oxolato) borate (LiDFOB) salt enables sufficient passivation of both LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 (NMC811) cathode and graphite anode in the absence of ethylene carbonate (EC).
