Chapter 6 Aerogel composite phase change material for thermal energy storages: a future perspective
Abstract
The leakage of liquid PCM and flaws in thermophysical performance significantly hinder the potential application of PCMs. Aerogel-based shape-stabilized PCM offer a highly effective solution for enhancing the packaging and thermal performance of phase change materials (PCMs) due to their exceptionally high specific surface area, higher porosity, unique physical and thermal characteristics, and low density. In addition to it the energy storage capability of aerogels can also serve different functions of energy conversion such as photothermal, electrothermal conversion, magnetic thermal conversion, ...
