Thermal Properties and Characterization of n-Decanol-Capric Acid/Expanded Graphite/Boron Nitride for Thermal Energy Storage

Medžiagotyra
To find a low temperature phase change material (PCM) that can be applied to the middle constant temperature chamber of the three chamber refrigerator, this study proposes a binary eutectic PCM of n-decanol and capric acid as a base liquid, expanded ...

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.

Optoelectronic Synaptic Devices Using Molecular Telluride Phase‐Change Inks for Three‐Factor Learning

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Optoelectronic synaptic devices based on solution‐processed molecular telluride GST‐225 phase‐change inks are demonstrated for three‐factor learning. A global optical signal broadcast through a silicon waveguide induces non‐volatile conductance updates exclusively in locally electrically flagged memristors.

Experimental Devices to Investigate the Long-Term Stability of Phase Change Materials under Application Conditions

Applied Sciences, 2020
An important prerequisite to select a reliable phase change material (PCM) for thermal energy storage applications is to test it under application conditions. In the case of solid–liquid PCM, a large amount of thermal energy can be stored and released in

Mechanical Programming of PEGDA‐β‐CD Polyrotaxane‐Based Hydrogels via Host–Guest Molecular Recognition

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A mechanically programmable hydrogel for tissue engineering is developed by modulating the molecular threading density of poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate‐β‐cyclodextrin (PEGDA‐β‐CD) polyrotaxane and combining it with β‐CD‐modified gelatin. The polyrotaxane‐guided transition from disordered pores to laminar microstructures enables precise tuning ...

Simulation study on thermal performance of novel phase change double skin facade

Xi'an Gongcheng Daxue xuebao
To address the issues of poor natural ventilation in double skin facades (DSF) and the excessive indoor temperature caused by solar radiation during summer, phase change material (PCM) is organically integrated into the DSF system, which proposes a novel
