A Review on Phase Change Materials Produced from Polymer-Nano Material Additive Paraffin Wax in Thermal Energy Storage

Öz

The use of latent heat storage system using phase change materials (PCM) is an efficient way of storing thermal energy. These materials store energy in the form of latent heat at constant temperature during phase transition and release the same stored energy. Paraffin is one of the important organic PCMs used with methods such as shape stabilization and encapsulation. Due to many limitations affecting the thermal performance of the material, such as the high economic cost of any technical grade paraffin, fluid leakage during the phase transition procedure, low thermal conductivity and low surface area, in order to improve the desired physical properties and thermal performance in latent heat storage, it is important to develop composite phase change materials obtained with paraffin wax. This review paper summarizes studies on phase change materials obtained using paraffin wax, and recommendations on the use of plastic, wax and nanomaterial wastes, which are excessive in the environment, in composite phase change materials are presented within the framework of global climate change mitigation strategies.

TERMAL ENERJİ DEPOLAMADA POLİMER-NANO MALZEME KATKILI PARAFİN VAKSTAN ÜRETİLEN FAZ DEĞİŞİM MALZEMELERİ ÜZERİNE BİR DEĞERLENDİRME

Öz

Faz değişim malzemeleri (FDM) kullanılarak gizli ısının depolanması, termal enerji depolamada, oldukça etkili bir yoldur. Bu malzemeler, faz geçişi sırasında enerjiyi sabit sıcaklıkta gizli ısı formunda depolar ve depolanan aynı enerjiyi serbest bırakır. Parafin, kapsülleme gibi yöntemlerle sabit bir şekle getirilerek kullanılan önemli organik FDM'lerden birisidir. Herhangi bir teknik sınıf parafinin ekonomik maliyetinin yüksek olması, faz geçiş prosedürü sırasında sıvı sızıntısı, düşük termal iletkenlik ve düşük yüzey alanı gibi malzemenin termal performansını etkileyen birçok sınırlama, gizli ısı depolamada istenen fiziksel özellikleri ve termal performansı iyileştirmek için parafin vaks ile oluşturulan kompozit faz değişim malzemelerinin geliştirilmesini önemli kılmaktadır. Bu derleme makalede; parafin vaks kullanılarak elde edilmiş faz değişim malzemeleriyle ilgili çalışmalar özetlenmiş, küresel iklim değişikliği azaltım stratejileri çerçevesinde, çevrede aşırı miktarda olan, plastik, vaks, organik ve inorganik malzemelerin kompozit faz değişim malzemelerinde kullanılabilirliği ile ilgili öneriler sunulmuştur.
