A phase-change material (PCM) is recommended for thermal energy storage. However, conventional PCMs suffer from poor conductivity. To solve this problem, study presented different compositions to improve PCM The effects of the average specific surface metal foams and weight percentage hybrid nanoparticles on materials' characteristics were investigated. findings demonstrate that performance composite noticeably better than pure increasing content foam leads an increase in conductivity 37.7%...
The application of laser cladding technology is nowadays widely extended in several industrial sectors due to its advantages for high added value parts direct manufacturing and repairing. At the moment, process mainly applied 3 axis or 3+2 strategies, being numerous works focused on obtainment parameters. Some imposes use 5 continuous kinematics perform complex parts. This fact requires new processes design strategies this type operations. presented work evaluates steps be followed before...
In recent years, the study of renewable energies and its practical application has increased significantly. Solar energy feasibility entails development storage systems since solar power plants need to be working in unfavorable weather or night periods. The main heat transfer fluid (HTF) used on these is a salt mixture 60% NaNO 3 /40% which must kept above 220 °C prevent freezing. This high operating temperature causes corrosion problems for steels contact with HTF, reducing lifetime plants....
The operating temperature of a steam turbine is limited to 565 ºC by the molten nitrate heat-transfer fluid; therefore, new salt chemistry needed increase maximum in generation CSP plants and improve thermal-to-electrical energy conversion efficiency block, such as chloride salts. Nevertheless, prevention high-temperature corrosion on containment materials using chlorides plays critical role mitigation plan achieve target plant lifetime 30 years. This paper presents strategy focused...
The effects of mixing diatomite and graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) with xylitol were examined in this study. Form stability thermal conductivity also evaluated. According to the experimental results, PCM composites exhibited a 0.403 W/mK. Melting solidification points determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) be 89.0°C 36.5°C, respectively. To maximize characteristics PCM, response surface methodology (RSM) was utilized create prediction models for based on mass fractions GNP....
