Stability and thermal conductivity of different nano-composite material prepared for thermal energy storage applications
The interest in solar energy applications doubles due to the necessities of the stage, and because of it, the interest in heat storage materials expands, the most important of which is paraffins. Paraffins suffer from low thermal conductivity, so many researchers have added nanomaterials that improv...

description |
The interest in solar energy applications doubles due to the necessities of the stage, and because of it, the interest in heat storage materials expands, the most important of which is paraffins. Paraffins suffer from low thermal conductivity, so many researchers have added nanomaterials that improve this property. In this study, nano-TiO2 and MgO and a 50% mixture of each were added to the Iraqi paraffin. The addition of nanoparticles caused the paraffin to change color from brown to white with the change of absorbance and transmittance properties. The density, viscosity, and heat capacity of the products increased slightly. The thermal conductivity of the products improved and the highest value obtained was 24.92%. The melting and solidification points decreased by one degree Celsius for the case of addition of nano-TiO2 and MgO and by 2 °C for the case of addition of the hybrid nanoparticles. Besides, the period of phase change of the products decreased. The nano-paraffin mixture showed high stability for more than 90 days and it is preferable to repeat the mixing process every 6 months to ensure this property. The study concludes that the addition of hybrid nano-TiO2 and MgO to Iraqi paraffin is suitable for solar energy applications. |
