Contribution of the Hydroxyl Group on Interfacial Heat Conduction of Monohydric Alcohols: A Molecular Dynamics Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Monohydric alcohols have been used as promising phase change materials (PCMs) for low-temperature latent heat storage. However, the heat storage/retrieval rates are limited due to the low thermal conductivity of such ...
Local Thermal Nonequilibrium During Melting of a Paraffin Filled in an Open-Cell Copper Foam: A Visualized Study at the Pore-Scale
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this technical brief, the application of infrared thermal imaging to investigate melting of a phase-change material (PCM) filled in an open-cell metal foam was proposed. Melting experiments in a rectangular cell were ...

Tribological Properties of Steel and Steel Lubricated With a Poly-α-Olefin Containing Schiff Base Copper Complex
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Poly-α-olefin (PAO) is an important synthetic fluid in the field of industry lubricants. To improve the tribological properties of PAO, a Schiff base copper complex was added to the lubricants. ...
Study of Wear Self-Repair of Steel 100Cr6 Rubbed With Lubricants Modified With Schiff Base Copper Complex
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Preparation of a Cu (II) chelate of bis(salicylaldehyde)ethylenediamine was carried out directly in epoxidized rape oil via a water/oil microemulsion reactor. Detailed characterization of the ...
A Technique for Deducing In-Plane Modulus and Coefficient of Thermal Expansion of a Supported Thin Film
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A technique for determining the in-plane modulus and the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of supported thin films has been developed. The modulus and CTE are calculated by solving two ...
A Novel Indirect Visualization Method for Studying the Melting Heat Transfer of Nano-Enhanced Phase Change Materials Using Thermochromic Liquid Crystal Thermography
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In order to give more sights into the melting (and solidification) heat transfer processes of nano-enhanced phase change material (NePCM) with invisible phase interfaces, a novel indirect method for tracking the phase ...
Fatigue Performance of Double-Layer Beams with an Interlayer Based on the Method of Equivalent Fatigue Life
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The bonding performance between a thin overlay and the pavement is an important basis for good performance of asphalt pavement. To research the effect of interlayer bonding on the fatigue life of thin overlays, three-point ...
An Experimental Investigation of Constrained Melting Heat Transfer of Nano-Enhanced Phase Change Materials in a Horizontal Cylindrical Capsule Using Thermochromic Liquid Crystal Thermography
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The constrained melting of nano-enhanced phase change materials (NePCM) in a horizontal cylindrical capsule was investigated via the utilization of thermochromic liquid crystal (TLC) technique for tracking the invisible ...
Unconstrained Melting Heat Transfer of Nano-Enhanced Phase-Change Materials in a Spherical Capsule for Latent Heat Storage: Effects of the Capsule Size
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Toward accelerated latent heat storage, the unconstrained melting heat transfer in spherical capsules was revisited experimentally in the presence of nano-enhanced phase-change materials (NePCMs), with an emphasis on the ...
