Nano-inclusion aided thermal conductivity enhancement in palmitic acid/di-methyl formamide phase change material for latent heat thermal energy storage
Mishra, A. K.[Amit Kumar], Lahiri, B.B., Solomon, V.[Vijay], Philip, J.[John]
We report enhanced thermal conductivity (TC) in palmitic acid (PA)-di-methyl formamide (DMF) based organic phase change material (PCM) loaded with four different nano-inclusions, viz., carbon black nano powder (CBNP), multiwalled carbon nanotube, graphene nanoplatelets and |A-Al2O3. The phase transition temperature is tuned from !
