Enhanced thermal conductivity of form-stable phase change composite with single-walled carbon nanotubes for thermal energy storage
A striking contrast in the thermal conductivities of polyethylene glycol (PEG)/diatomite form-stable phase change composite (fs-PCC) with single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNs) as nano-additive has been reported in our present study. Compared to the pure PEG, the thermal conductivity of the prepared fs-PCC has increased from 0.24 W/mK to 0.87 W/Mk with a small SWCNs loading of 2 wt%. SWCNs are ...
متن کاملMetal matrix-metal nanoparticle composites with tunable melting temperature and high thermal conductivity for phase-change thermal storage.
Phase-change materials (PCMs) are of broad interest for thermal storage and management applications. For energy-dense storage with fast thermal charging/discharging rates, a PCM should have a suitable melting temperature, large enthalpy of fusion, and high thermal conductivity. To simultaneously accomplish these traits, we custom design nanocomposites consisting of phase-change Bi nanoparticles...
متن کاملThe Classical One-phase Stefan Problem with Temperature-dependent Thermal Conductivity and a Convective Term
We study a one-phase Stefan problem for a semi-infinite material with temperaturedependent thermal conductivity and a convective term with a constant temperature boundary condition or a heat flux boundary condition of the type −q0/ √ t (q0 > 0) at the fixed face x = 0. We obtain in both cases sufficient conditions for data in order to have a parametric representation of the solution of the simi...
متن کاملExperimental Investigation of the Alumina/Paraffin Thermal Conductivity Nanofluids with a New Correlated Equation on Effective Thermal Conductivity
Liquid paraffin as a coolant fluid can be applied in electronic devices as a result to its suitable capabilities such as electrical insulating, high heat capacity, chemical and thermal stability, and high boiling point. However, the poor thermal conductivity of paraffin has been confined its thermal cooling application. Addition of high conductor nanoparticles to paraffin can fix this drawback...
متن کاملThickness-dependent thermal conductivity of encased graphene and ultrathin graphite.
The thermal conductivity of graphene and ultrathin graphite (thickness from 1 to ∼20 layers) encased within silicon dioxide was measured using a heat spreader method. The thermal conductivity increases with the number of graphene layers, approaching the in-plane thermal conductivity of bulk graphite for the thickest samples, while showing suppression below 160 W/m-K at room temperature for sing...
