Transport Property Analysis of a Microencapsulated Phase Change Material Suspension with Material Properties

Article Preview

Abstract:

The transport properties of microencapsulated phase change material (MPCM) suspension are helpful for selection of components in the MPCM suspension transport system. The properties of MPCM sample are investigated theoretically. Transport property of MPCM suspension, especially pressure drop in pipe system, has been identified by theoretical analysis. The experimental researches in transport capability and power consumption of MPCM suspension are investigated as well.
