Optically-controlled long-term storage and release of thermal energy in phase-change materials. Nature Communications, 2017; 8 (1) DOI: 10.1038/s41467-017-01608-y ...

WASHINGTON, December 14, 2021 -- As the world searches for practical ways to decarbonize our activities and mitigate associated climate change, approaches to alternative energy are hampered by the ...

Fabric might be the last thing on your mind when firefighters rescue someone from a burning building, but without fire-resistant clothing, such rescues might not happen at all. The turnout gear that ...

The organic phase-change material has already garnered interest for cooking applications in rural India. Such systems could also be used for drying agricultural crops or for space heating. #30 ...

And all while only consuming 0.2 watts for a 2 x 2-inch thermal patch. The scientists believe that it would only take 144 patches with a total consumption of 26 watts to keep someone at the 89.6F ...

They used paraffin wax as the phase-change material (PCM), incorporating various levels of aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃) and zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles. They also developed a prediction model.

NREL scientists have unveiled a storage system based on a phase-change material that can store both thermal energy and electricity in a single device. According to the researchers, the new ...

There are three major thermal storage technologies: Sensible storage stores thermal energy by raising the material's temperature, be it solid (e.g., clay bricks in home storage heaters) or liquid (e.g ...
