Macro-Encapsulation of Inorganic Phase-Change Materials (PCM) in Metal Capsules

Macro-Encapsulation of Inorganic Phase-Change Materials (PCM) in Metal Capsules

The design of phase-change material (PCM)-based thermal energy storage (TES) systems is challenging since a lot of PCMs have low thermal conductivities and a considerable volume change during phase-change. The low thermal conductivity restricts energy transport due to the increasing thermal resistan...
