Effect of Using Nano Encapsulated Phase Change Material on Thermal Performance of Micro Heat Sink

The aim of this paper is to enhance thermal performance of a microchannel heat sink by using nanoencapsulated phase change material (NEPCM) slurry as a cooling fluid instead of pure fluid. A threedimensional model of a circular channel using water slurry of NEPCM was developed. The results show a significant reduction in the mean fluid temperature along the channel and heat sink wall temperatu...

Optimization of a Phase Change Heat Sink for Extreme Environments

Results of numerical optimization are reported for a phase change heat sink used to cool electronic equipment in extreme environments. The heat sink consists of a conventional, extruded aluminum sink embedded in a block of phase change material. This type of heat sink is used in infrared cameras carried by fire fighters into burning buildings. Optimization of the geometry of the heat sink assem...

Phase Change Material Systems for High Temperature Heat Storage.

Efficient, cost effective, and stable high-temperature heat storage material systems are important in applications such as high-temperature industrial processes (metal processing, cement and glass manufacturing, etc.), or electricity storage using advanced adiabatic compressed air energy storage. Incorporating phase change media into heat storage systems provides an advantage of storing and rel...
