Coating approach for a Phase Change Material (PCM)
Powder Technology, 2019Abstract PCMs (Phase Change Materials) go through volumetric variation during the solid-liquid phase transitions. Encapsulation enables the preservation of their thermal efficiency and prevents adherence on the surface where they are applied. For PCM application, particles with high load are desirable, and the coating in fluidized bed represents a ...

Numerical Investigation of a Phase Change Material (PCM) Module With Internal Fins
ASME/JSME 2007 Thermal Engineering Heat Transfer Summer Conference, Volume 2, 2007The main objective of this study is to investigate the enhancement of energy storage rate of a thermal energy storage unit filled with a PCM by inserting a fin array system. Heat is transferred to the unit through its base plates, to which aluminum fins are attached. The PCM, a commercial paraffin wax, is stored between the fins.

Effect of phase change materials on the hydration reaction and kinetic of PCM-mortars
Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry, 2014The Phase Change Materials are considered an attractive way to reduce energy consumption thanks to their heat storage capacity. Their incorporation in the construction materials allows the energy to be an integral part of the building structure. Even though PCMs have shown their reliability from a thermal point of view, some drawbacks linked to their ...
