Abstract

Phase change material slurries (PCS) can serve as both the heat transfer fluids and energy storage media, consequently, they are potentially applicable to the thermal systems, e.g., the secondary refrigeration and air conditioning loops, so as to improve the energy efficiency and to reduce the quantity of refrigerant used in the system. The design of the system using PCS needs the quantitative information about the thermal and fluidic behaviors of PCS. Here we provide an overview of the characteristics of two big groups of PCS, namely microencapsulated phase change material slurry (MPCS) and semi-clathrate hydrate slurry (CHS). The focuses are placed on the flow and heat transfer features and thermal properties, such as specific heat, viscosity and thermal conductivity. The suitable materials for making PCS are also discussed and compared based on the available data in the literature, and some examples of the applications of PCS are summarized as well.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
