چکیده
Thermal Energy Storage using phase change materials has become an interesting area of energy research because of its high energy storage density, isothermal nature of storage process and small volume changes. There are wide ranges of phase change materials available commercially. This work deals with paraffin and Palmitic acid eutectic mixture in three different proportions as phase change materials and made an attempt to improve the properties.

Experimental Study on Solar Energy Storage Using Phase Change Materials in Spherical Shell Storage System
Storing of available energy for later use is a necessity in the present world, one such method is using Phase Change Materials (PCMs). PCMs need a heat transfer medium to transfer the energy from the source to the PCM. In this present work spherical balls are used to store the PCM and water is used as a heat transfer fluid. Paraffin wax (PW) and Palmitic acid (PA) and (4060% PW-PA) eutectic mix...

Objective(s): Hardystonite (HT) is Zn-modified silicate bioceramics with promising results for bone tissue regeneration. However, HT possesses no obvious apatite formation. Thus, in this study we incorporated Sr and Ti into HT to prepare Sr-Ti-hardystonite (Sr-Ti-HT) nanocomposite and evaluated its in vitro bioactivity with the purpose of developing a more bioactive bone substitute material. Ma...
