Figure of merit for the thermal performance of cementitious composites containing phase change materials
This paper presents a novel method to quantitatively characterize the thermal performance of composite materials containing phase change materials (PCM) based on a figure of merit we termed the energy indicator. The method features (i) commonly used specimen geometry, (ii) straightforward experimental implementation, and (iii) sensitivity to relevant design parameters including PCM volume fract...
متن کاملEffective thermal conductivity of three-component composites containing spherical capsules
This paper presents detailed numerical simulations predicting the effective thermal conductivity of spherical monodisperse and polydisperse core–shell particles ordered or randomly distributed in a continuous matrix. First, the effective thermal conductivity of this three-component composite material was found to be independent of the capsule spatial distribution and size distribution. In fact,...
متن کاملThermal Conductivity of Diamond Composites
A major problem challenging specialists in present-day materials sciences is the development of compact, cheap to fabricate heat sinks for electronic devices, primarily for computer processors, semiconductor lasers, high-power microchips, and electronics components. The materials currently used for heat sinks of such devices are aluminum and copper, with thermal conductivities of about 250 W/(m...
متن کاملNovel Formulations of Phase Change Materials—Epoxy Composites for Thermal Energy Storage
This research aimed to evaluate the thermal properties of new formulations of phase change materials (PCMs)-epoxy composites, containing a thickening agent and a thermally conductive phase. The composite specimens produced consisted of composites fabricated using (a) inorganic PCMs (hydrated salts), epoxy resins and aluminum particulates or (b) organic PCM (paraffin), epoxy resins, and copper p...
متن کاملThermal Transport in Phase Change Memory Materials
Phase change memory uses brief pulses of electrical current to induce phase transitions in chalcogenide material regions with dimensions near or even far below 50 nm. The strongly differing electrical conductivities of the crystalline and amorphous phases allow data storage at densities in excess of terabits per square inch. Nanoscale conduction heat transfer governs the figures of merit in the...
