Latent Heat Storage

As a promising Phase Change Material (PCM) candidate for low-to-medium temperature (100–250 °C) latent heat storage, sugar alcohols undergo serious supercooling during cool-down for crystallization. Technical efforts need to be dedicated to suppression or control of the supercooling of sugar alcohols. In this work, the supercooling of D-dulcitol, with a melting point of around 186 °C, was attempted to be reduced by mixing with a solid-solid PCM Pentaerythritol (PE) as the nucleation agent, which has a solid-solid phase transition temperature (∼186 °C) similar to the melting point of d-dulcitol. Such novel binary mixtures were prepared by dispersing PE powders at various mass fractions into d-dulcitol melt. The non-isothermal phase-change-related properties, with emphasis on the crystallization properties, were tested on a heat-flux differential scanning calorimeter at a constant heating/cooling rate of 5 °C/min. The preliminary results showed that both the crystallization point and latent heat of crystallization strongly depend on the mass fraction of PE, and both decrease in magnitude with the increasing in mass fraction of PE. The degree of supercooling of the binary mixtures also depend on the mass fraction of PE, and a reduction of up to 10 °C was obtained at 50 wt.% PE, as a result of the decrease in the melting points of the binary mixtures.

Above the melting point of PEG, gel states were obtained due to the formation of DBS nanofibrillar networks in the PEG matrix, followed by liquid states upon further heating.

A new method to directly print out a solidified electronic circuit through low-melting-point metal ink is proposed. A functional pen with heating capability was fabricated. Several typical thermal properties of the alloy ink Bi 35 In 48.6 Sn 16 Zn 0.4 were measured and evaluated. Owing to the specifically selected melting point of the ink, which is slightly higher than room temperature, various electronic devices, graphics or circuits can be manufactured in a short period of time and then rapidly solidified by cooling in the surrounding air. The liquid–solid phase change mechanism of the written lines was experimentally characterized using a scanning electron microscope. In order to determine the matching substrate, wettability between the metal ink Bi 35 In 48.6 Sn 16 Zn 0.4 and several materials, including mica plate and silicone rubber, was investigated. The resistance–temperature curve of a printed resistor indicated its potential as a temperature control switch. Furthermore, the measured reflection coefficient of a printed double-diamond antenna accords well with the simulated result. With unique merits such as no pollution, no requirement for encapsulation and easy recycling, the present printing approach is an important supplement to current printed electronics and has enormous practical value in the future.

Kinetics Of

AlN whiskers have been successfully synthesized by carbothermal reduction. The thermodynamics and growth kinetics of AlN whiskers were studied at 1600°C using CaCO3 as a catalyst. The research indicated that AlN whiskers are more easily nucleated from the liquid phase than at the surface of solid phase. AlN whiskers are nucleated by VLS mechanism and the liquid, which plays a dominant role in the VLS mechanism, is formed by Al-Ca interphases, such as CaO×2Al2O3 and CaO×6Al2O3. Kinetic studies suggest that the catalyst reacts with Al2O3 to form a low melting point eutectic (1390°C). The liquid phase formed at this low melting point eutectic provides good conditions for nucleation of AlN whiskers. At the synthesis temperature, the liquid phase vaporizes, thus creating suitable conditions for the subsequent growing of whiskers by the VLS mechanism. This growing mechanism conforms to thermodynamics and a lot of proof indicates that screw dislocations play an important role in the process of the whiskers' formation.

Phonon Spectra

We have studied the vibrational spectra and thermal behaviour of ortho-dinitrotetramethylbenzene (o-DNTMB) to learn more about its molecular and lattice dynamics. The molecule undergoes two solid–solid phase transitions, close to the melting point, which could be explained by the relaxation of forces hindering the methyl-group and nitro-group free rotations. We have deduced the nature of the solid state vibrational motions, particularly those of lattice phonons, using group theory.

T1 has been measured at 4 MHz and 78 K < T < 120 K in mixtures having a Kr molar fraction c up to 0.8. The transition temperature Ts, corresponding to the solidus curve, has been determined for several values of c by observing the large discontinuity in T1 as in pure CH4. In the solid phase, the intermolecular dipolar contribution to the relaxation rate is found to be dominant at T > 80 K, and our data are in agreement with a simple model based on the Torrey–Sholl theory. Above the melting point, T1 becomes independent of c, thus suggesting that relaxation may be driven by intramolecular interactions in the liquid phase.

The Given

The molar volume of carbon tetrachloride is calculated as functions of temperature and pressure close to the melting point. By analyzing the experimental data for the pressure dependence of the thermal expansivity according to a power-law formula, the molar volume is calculated for the solid and liquid phases of this molecular organic compound. Our calculations show that the molar volume of the solid phase increases almost linearly as the temperature and pressure increase, so that there is no anomalous behavior close to the melting point in CCl 4. In the liquid phase, it does not vary considerably within the given pressure and temperature ranges. Our calculated molar volumes can be compared with measurements for CCl 4 under the given pressure and temperature variations.

Ionic liquids have been suggested as new engineering fluids, namely in the area of heat transfer, as alternatives to current biphenyl and diphenyl oxide, alkylated aromatics and dimethyl polysiloxane oils, which degrade above 200 °C and pose some environmental problems. Recently, we have proposed 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium methanesulfonate, [C2mim][CH3SO3], as a new heat transfer fluid, because of its thermophysical and toxicological properties. However, there are some interesting points raised in this work, namely the possibility of the existence of liquid metastability below the melting point (303 K) or second order-disorder transitions (λ-type) before reaching the calorimetric freezing point. This paper analyses in more detail this zone of the phase diagram of the pure fluid, by reporting accurate thermal-conductivity measurements between 278 and 355 K with an estimated uncertainty of 2% at a 95% confidence level. A new value of the melting temperature is also reported, Tmelt = 307.8 ± 1 K. Results obtained support liquid metastability behaviour in the solid-phase region and permit the use of this ionic liquid at a heat transfer fluid at temperatures below its melting point. Thermal conductivity models based on Bridgman theory and estimation formulas were also used in this work, failing to predict the experimental data within its uncertainty.
