Book Nano Enhanced Phase Change Materials

Download or read book Nano Enhanced Phase Change Materials written by Zafar Said and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-10-14 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides information on thermal energy storage systems incorporating phase change materials (PCMs) which are widely preferred owing to their immense energy storage capacity. The thermal energy storage (TES) potential of PCMs has been deeply explored for a wide range of applications, including solar/electrothermal energy storage, waste heat storage, and utilization, building energy-saving, and thermal regulations. The inherent shortcomings like leakage during phase transition and poor thermal conductivity hamper their extensive usage. Nevertheless, it has been addressed by their shape stabilization with porous materials and dispersing highly conductive nanoparticles. Nanoparticles suspended in traditional phase change materials enhance the thermal conductivity. The addition of these nanoparticles to the conventional PCM enhances the storage. In this book, the history of Nano Enhanced Phase Change Materials (NEPCM), preparation techniques, properties, theoretical modeling and correlations, and the effect of all these factors on the potential applications such as: solar energy, electronics cooling, heat exchangers, building, battery thermal management, thermal energy storage are discussed in detail. Future challenges and future work scope have been included. The information from this book can enable the readers to come up with novel techniques, resolve existing research limitations, and come up with novel NEPCM, that can be implemented for various applications.

Book Preparation of Novel Nanomaterials for Energy Storage and Electronic Device Applications

Download or read book Preparation of Novel Nanomaterials for Energy Storage and Electronic Device Applications written by Ling Fei and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Epitaxial metal oxide nanocomposite films, possessing interesting multifunctionality, have been applied in wide range of device applications. However, films are usually produced by high-vacuum equipment like pulse laser deposition, molecular beam epitaxy, and chemical vapor deposition. As an alternative, chemical solution approaches are not only cost-effective but also offer advantages over large surface coating, good control of stoichiometry or possible dopants. Therefore, we first reviewed the chemistry behind several main solution approaches including sol-gel, metal organic decomposition, chelate, polymer-assisted deposition, hydrothermal, and presented seminal works reported so far to demonstrate the advantages and disadvantages of different routes. Then, two epitaxial nanocomposite film systems are prepared via the newly developed, most promising polymer-assisted deposition method. The films' quality and magnetoresistance are studied and compared with that of films prepared by different methods in literature.

Book Solar Thermal Energy Storage

Download or read book Solar Thermal Energy Storage written by H.P. Garg and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Energy Storage not only plays an important role in conservinq the energy but also improves the performance and reliability of a wide range of energy systems. Energy storagp. leads to saving of premium fuels and makes the system morA cost effective by reducing the wastage of energy. In most systems there is a mismatch between the energy supply and energy demand. The energy storage can even out this imbalance and thereby help in savings of capital costs. Enerqy storage is all the more important where the enerqy source is intermittent such as Solar Energy. The use of jntermittent energy sources is likely to grow. If more and more solar energy is to be used for domestic and industrial applications then energy storage is very crucial. If no storage is used in solar energy systems then the major part of the energy demand will be met by the back-up or auxiliary energy and therefore the so called annual solar load fract]on will be very low. In case of solar energy, both short term and long term energy storage systems can be used whjch can adjust the phase difference between solar energy supply and energy demand and can match seasonal demands to the solar availability respectively. Thermal energy storage can lead to capital cost savings, fuel savjngs, and fuel substitution in many application areas. Developing an optimum thermal storaqe system is as important an area of research as developinq an alternative source of energy.
