Comparative Study On Finned And Finless Tubes Immersed In Phase Change Material

open access: yes, 2015
In an attempt to increase the heat transfer rate and reduce the convective currents during freezing in PCM storage tank, externally finned circular tubes submersed in PCM were studied both theoretically and experimentally.

Somatic mutational landscape in von Hippel–Lindau familial hemangioblastoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The causes of central nervous system (CNS) hemangioblastoma in Von Hippel–Lindau (vHL) disease are unclear. We used Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) on familial hemangioblastoma to investigate events that underlie tumor development. Our findings suggest that VHL loss creates a permissive environment for tumor formation, while additional alterations ...

Increasing thermal mass in lightweight dwellings using phase change materials – a literature review

open access: yes, 2009
The number of houses of lightweight timber or steel frame construction being built over recent years has increased significantly. These buildings have low thermal mass and may be subject to large temperature fluctuations and particular overheating during

Dynamic Simulations of Phase-Change Emulsions in Cooling Systems

open access: yes
The application of phase change material emulsions (PCMEs) in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems is considered to be a potential way of saving energy due to their relatively higher energy storage capacity compared with water.

Thermal Energy Storage Possibilities in the Composite Trombe Wall Modified with a Phase Change Material

open access: yes
Energy savings issues are important in the context of building operation. An interesting solution for the southern external walls of the building envelope is the thermal storage wall (TSW), also known as the Trombe wall.

Heat transfer analysis for phase change materials (PCMs) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The heat transfer enhancement for phase change materials (PCMs) has received much attention nowadays, since most of PCMs have low thermal conductivities which prolong the charging and discharging processes.
