Thermal management performance of two composite phase change materials (PCMs)—a highly thermally conductive 60 wt% RT44HC/expanded graphite (EG) composite and a 60 wt% RT44HC/fumed silica composite with a lower thermal conductivity—is studied for a 20-cell Li-ion battery pack working at 5 and −10 °C. The temperature and voltage distributions in each battery pack are measured during single-discharge...
A novel multi-generation integrated energy system is presented in this paper, consisting of a gas-steam combined cycle, four-step thermochemical copper-chlorine (CuCl) cycle, proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) and a reverse osmosis (RO) desalination unit. Effective thermal management of waste heat is recognized as a key objective in the steel industry. Hydrogen, electricity, fresh water and...
Thermal energy storage is important for energy saving and social developing. Low-cost, high thermal conductivity, form-stable composite phase change materials are urgent in energy storage and management. In this work, a novel carbonized wood-based composite phase change materials (TDCW) are fabricated by impregnating of 1-tetradecanol (TD) into carbonized wood (CW). CW as supporting material exhibits...
Efficient latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) systems can be potentially employed to improve the energy saving capability and thermal performance of buildings. In this paper, a new coupled cooling method with phase-change chairs (PCC) and phase-change plates (PCPs) is firstly proposed to solve the cooling problem in isolated environments, such as mine refuge chamber with high temperature. A...
