Free convection of a suspension containing nano-encapsulated phase change material in a porous cavity; local thermal non-equilibrium model [PDF]

Heliyon, 2020
Due to the instinctive temperature-dependent heat capacity of the Nano-Encapsulated Phase Change Material (NEPCM), there is a growing interest in the potential applications of such materials in heat transfer. As such, steady-state natural convection in a

Effect of the PSSMA Content on the Heat Transfer Performances of Polyurea Nano-Encapsulated Phase Change Materials [PDF]

Materials, 2021
Polyurea nano-encapsulated phase change materials (PUA-NEPCMs) were prepared from an n-octadecane core and through the formation of amide bonds by the reaction of toluene 2,4-diisocyanate and poly(4-styrenesulfonic acid-co-maleic acid) sodium salt (PSSMA), followed by the subsequent formation of a PUA shell using a miniemulsion system.

Receiving heat from a PCM tank by using natural convection of water and NEPCM: A simulation for LHTES application

Case Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2022
Latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) systems are widely used due to their ability to store a lot of heat energy as latent, and few studies have directly or indirectly investigated on the heat exchange methods with LHTES systems.
