Experimental Analysis of the Impact of Nanoinclusions and Surfactants on the Viscosity of Paraffin-Based Energy Storage Materials
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Phase change materials (PCMs) are commonly used in many applications, including the transient thermal management of electronics. For many systems, paraffin-based PCMs are used with suspended nanoinclusions to increase their ...
Development of Methods to Fully Saturate Carbon Foam With Paraffin Wax Phase Change Material for Energy Storage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this work, the effect of infiltration method on the saturation rate of paraffin phase change material within graphite foams is experimentally investigated. Graphite foams infiltrated with paraffin have been found to be ...
Dopant Clustering and Correlated Oxygen Migration in Conditionally Stabilized Zirconia Electrolytes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of yttria/scandiastabilized zirconia (SSZ) with variably distributed Y/Sc dopant ions shows that energy is minimized when the dopants are uniformly spread apart, provided that the lattice ...
The Performance Impact of Integrating Water Storage Into a Chiller-Less Data Center Design
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Data centers consume an extraordinary amount of electricity, and the rate of consumption is increasing at a rapid pace. Thus, energy efficiency in data center design is of substantial interest since it can have a significant ...
