The desired phase-transition temperature and enthalpy of phase change materials are different in different application fields. When the composite way is reasonable, the phase-transition temperature and enthalpy of phase change can satisfy the demand of PCMs using in clothes. Based on The theory of eutectic system and the Schroeder Formula, the lowest eutectic point was computed by using MATLAB software in this paper, and then the enthalpy of phase change was also compared in order to get the best proportion of PCMs.

The nano-microencapsulated phase change materials were prepared ,with butyl stearate as core material, styrene-maleic anhydride copolymer (SMA) as dispersant and emulsifier, polyurea resin as shell material which was synthesized from monomer 2, 4- toluene diisocyanate (TDI) and diethylen etriamine (DETA),and was modified by glycerol, nanometer material(TiO2) as functional material. We have analyzed the compactness, stabilities, phase transition temperature, and bactericidal efficiency of microcapsules. The results show that the compactness properties and stabilities properties of the modified microcapsule, when the ratio of core material and shell material is 3:4, such as washing stability properties and thermal stability properties are obviously improved than that of non-modified, phase transition temperature rises from 23.2°C to 24.2°C,bactericidal efficiency of Nano-Micro-PCMs is 7~8 times more than that of separate using of nanometer material (TiO2), modified polyurea Nano-Micro-PCMs may have extensive application prospects in the fields of architecture, textile and air-conditioning filtering materials.

The binary eutectic of lauric acid-stearic acid / expanded perlite composite phase change materials (PCM) was prepared using the method of vacuum impregnation. The structures and properties of this composite PCM were characterized by FT-IR, SEM, DSC and TG analysis. The results showed that the binary eutectic of fatty acid had been composed with porous skeleton expanded perlite completely in a physical method, the phase transition temperature of composite PCM was about 33.0 °C and latent heat was 131.3 J/g. it had a good thermal stability after 100 times of recycling and gave the phase transition temperature 33.5 °C and the latent heat of 128.1 J/g respectively.

A mathematical model based on the integral method is developed to solve the problem of conduction-controlled solid–liquid phase change in annular geometries with temperature gradients in both phases. The inner and outer boundaries of the annulus were subject to convective, constant temperature or adiabatic boundary conditions. The developed model was validated by comparison with control volume-based computational results using the temperature-transforming phase change model, and an excellent agreement was achieved. The model was used to conduct parametric studies on the effect of annuli geometry, thermophysical properties of the phase change materials (PCM), and thermal boundary conditions on the dynamics of phase change. For an initially liquid PCM, it was found that increasing the radii ratio increased the total solidification time. Also, increasing the Biot number at the cooled (heated) boundary and Stefan number of the solid (liquid) PCM, decreased (increased) the solidification time and resulted in a greater (smaller) solid volume fraction at steady state. The application of the developed method was demonstrated by design and analysis of a PCM–air heat exchanger for HVAC systems. The model can also be easily employed for design and optimization of annular PCM systems for all associated applications in a fraction of time needed for computational simulations.
