Supercooling elimination of phase change materials (PCMs) microcapsules

open access: yesEnergy, 2015
Abstract Microencapsulated phase change materials (PCM) must not experience any supercooling, otherwise cannot be used in any latent heat applications. In this study Rubitherm ® RT58 and1-octadecanol were selected as nucleating agents in an attempt to reduce or eliminate the supercooling issue of PCM in microcapsules.

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 ...
