Phase Change Materials for Thermal Energy Management and Storage

Fundamentals and Applications

About this book

Phase Change Materials for Thermal Energy Management and Storage: Fundamentals and Applications provides the latest advances in thermal energy applications of phase change materials (PCMs). It introduces definitions and offers a brief history, and then delves into preparation techniques, thermophysical properties and heat transfer characteristics with mathematical models, performance-affecting factors, and applications and challenges of PCMs.

Features

  • Provides key heat transfer enhancement and thermophysical properties features for a wide range of PCMs.
  • Presents detailed parameter selection procedures impacting heat transfer.
  • Reviews available prediction methods for heat transfer and thermophysical properties of PCMs.
  • Discusses practical applications for enhanced thermal control.
  • Explores challenges and potential opportunities for heat transfer enhancement.

This reference offers a comprehensive overview of the fundamentals, technologies, and current and near-future applications of PCMs for thermal energy management and storage for researchers and advanced students in materials, mechanical, and related fields of engineering.
