Experimental Investigation into the Effect of Nanoparticles on the Solidification Rate of Phase Change Material in Intermediate Boiling Fluid Method, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Shafii, Mohammad Behshad (Supervisor)
Abstract
The low melting and solidification rates of phase change materials, which traces back to their low thermal conductivity coefficient, has led the application of these materials to face limitations. In this study, it is attempted to enhance the energy storage process in phase change materials for a complete charge-discharge cycle using a novel method called SFD-IBF. Throughout this novel technique paraffin and acetone are used as phase change material and intermediate boiling fluid, respectively. In the solidification process, there is no direct contact between the cold source and the molten paraffin, while acetone, as an intermediate fluid, is being boiled via adsorbing paraffin’s heat and...
