Heat Sponge: A Concept for Mass-Efficient Heat Storage [PDF]
46th AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting and Exhibit, 2008 The heat sponge is a device for mass-efficient storage of heat. It was developed to be incorporated in the substructure of a re-entry vehicle to reduce thermal- protection-system requirements. The heat sponge consists of a liquid/vapor mixture contained within a number of miniature pressure vessels that can be embedded within a variety of different ...

A Study on Heat Storage and Dissipation Efficiency at Permeable Road Pavements [PDF]
Materials, 2021 The main contributing factor of the urban heat island (UHI) effect is caused by daytime heating. Traditional pavements in cities aggravate the UHI effect due to their heat storage and volumetric heat capacity. In order to alleviate UHI, this study aims to understand the heating and dissipating process of different types of permeable road pavements. The
