Latent Heat Storage with Phase Change Materials (PCMs) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Technology Innovations in Renewable Energy, 2013
Latent heat thermal energy storage with phase change materials (PCMs) is attractive since providing a high energy density storage due to the phase change by solidification/melting at constant temperature. Relative to sensible heat energy storage systems, latent heat storage with PCMs requires a smaller weight and volume of material for a given amount ...

Phase change material infused recycled brick aggregate in 3D printed concrete

open access: yesHeliyon, 2022
In this paper the effects of the addition of a paraffin phase change material on the strength and printability of 3D printed concrete are studied. Phase change materials are latent heat storing materials, which garner and release large amounts of energy ...

Thermal Management Effectiveness and Efficiency of a Fin Surrounded by a Phase Change Material (PCM)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 2022
Extended surfaces, also known as fins are used commonly for heat transfer enhancement in energy storage and thermal management problems. A fin may improve the rate of heat transfer by offering greater surface area. While the performance of a fin in a single-

Free Cooling with Phase Change Materials (PCM) [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Research, 2010
Phase change materials (PCM) are described along with some of their advantages in air conditioning installations, particularly with regard to taking advantage of the free cooling that can be obtained from the ambient air, by using either sensible heat or evaporation.

Thermal behavior improvement of hollow sintered bricks integrated with both thermal insulation material (TIM) and Phase-Change Material (PCM)

open access: yes, 2021
Thermal Insulation Material (TIM) or Phase-Change Material (PCM) had been often employed to improve the thermal performance of hollow sintered bricks. To gain the reasonable and effective filling groups of TIM or PCM, seven walls were built by sintered ...
