Wastepaper is a potential biomass source that can be processed into solid fuel (briquette).
The present work proposes a novel method to improve the storage property of briquettes for …

The highest thermal energy for phase change material (PCM) is stored/discharged with
unsubstantial temperature changes during the isothermal phase transition. However, the …

Multiphase coexistence in the organic phase change material (PCM) leads to practical
drawbacks. It causes partial charge/discharge behavior, which reduces the operational …

Paraffin-based latent heat storage has a higher thermal capacity than sensible heat storage.
Despite that, the actual implementation of paraffin as an active latent heat storage (ALHS) …

The present work assesses the direct contact cascaded immiscible phase change material
(PCM) for solar heat storage systems (SHSS) in water heating applications. The direct …

Estimating the total thermal capacity for phase change material (PCM) as heat storage
material is extremely important to set the proper operational parameter of the latent storage …

A dynamic latent thermal storage (DLTS) system operates at elevated working temperatures
to maximize the operation of the thermal system. It potentially deteriorates the phase change …

The present work is specifically focused on the form stability of paraffin as a phase change
material (PCM) through the addition of high-density polyethylene (HDPE). The aim of adding …

The composite of paraffin with reduced graphene oxide (paraffin/rGO) was obtained at 70° C
by the mechanical mixing of the components followed by ultrasonic dispersion. The …

The present work evaluates the proportional ratio of multi-walled carbon nanotubes
(MWCNT) for improving the thermal conductivity (k) of paraffin wax (PW) and polymeric …
