This paper examined the thermophysical properties of hydrate using disodium hydrogenphosphate 12H2O to develop a long-term latent heat storage (LTLHS) using supercooling. The thermal conductivities of solid and liquid disodium hydrogenphosphate 12H2O were measured using the transient plane source (TPS) technique. Results showed that the thermal conductivity of liquid disodium hydrogenphosphate 12H2O increased slightly with temperature, whereas the solid phase showed a minor downward trend. Also, thermal ...
Phase change materials have supercooling characteristics that would benefit long-term latent heat thermal energy storage. This paper studied the physical and chemical properties associated with the growth rate of crystallization in disodium hydrogenphosphate dodecahydrate (DHD) as a function of a degree of supercooling. The transient plane source (TPS) technique was used to measure the thermal conductivity of the DHD samples. Results of the thermal conductivity test showed that the solid ...
