How to enhance thermal conductivity of phase change materials?

Comparison of different ways to enhance thermal conductivity of phase change materials Overall the methods to enhance thermal conductivity of PCM can be divided into two categories: fixed and stationary high conductivity inserts/additives, and extrinsic enhancement methods like fins and PCM encapsulation, etc.

Why is thermal conductivity important for phase change energy storage systems?

Thermal conductivity is a key parameter for phase change energy storage systems to measure how fast or slow the energy is transferred. Many researchers in China and abroad have done a lot of work on improving the thermal conductivity of phase change materials.

What is the thermal conductivity pathway in composite phase change material?

The internally formed thermal conductivity pathway within the composite phase change material enabled rapid heat diffusion within the material upon exposure to concentrated sunlight, resulting in the acquisition of higher temperature potential energy.

What is a phase change material (PCM) for thermal energy storage?

Phase change materials (PCMs) for thermal energy storage Thermal energy can be stored as latent energy by heating and cooling the material without much visible temperature change. The stored energy can be retrieved when the process is reversed.

What is a copper nanoparticle enhanced phase change material?

A copper nanoparticle enhanced phase change material with high thermal conductivity and latent heat for battery thermal management [J] Performance investigation of a passive battery thermal management system applied with phase change material [J]

Does expanded graphite enhance directional thermal conductivity of energy storage bricks?

Wu et al. demonstrated that the incorporation of aligned expanded graphite into phase change materials significantly enhances the directional thermal conductivity of energy storage bricks, achieving a notable value of 35 W m −1 K −1 at a fill rate of 40 %.
