The Use of Eutectic Fe-Si-B Alloy as a Phase Change Material in Thermal Energy Storage Systems

Fe-26.38Si-9.35B eutectic alloy is proposed as a phase change material (PCM) as it exhibits high latent heat, high thermal conductivity, moderate melting point, and low cost. For successful implementation of it in the latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) systems, we investigate the use of grap...
