Experimental and numerical investigation on integrated thermal management for lithium-ion battery pack with composite phase change materials

In this study, thermal behaviors of an integrated thermal management system (ITMS) with phase change materials (PCMs) and air conditioning exhaust are examined. To enhance thermal conductivity of the PCM, copper foam and paraffin were added. Thermal conductivity of the composite PCM was measured by a thermal analyzer, based on the transient plane source method....

Fabrication, proposed model and simulation predictions on thermally conductive hybrid cyanate ester composites with boron nitride fillers

In the present study, boron nitride/dicyclopentadiene bisphenol cyanate ester/bisphenol A dicyanate ester (BN/DCPDCE/BADCy) composites were investigated for the effects of filler mass on thermal and mechanical properties. Thermal conductivity was measured using an instrument by transient plane source method. With the addition of BN fillers for BN/DCPDCE/BADCy composites, the BN-BN connections of inner composites increased and formed more thermally conductive channels, resulting in improved ...

Experimental and modeling of thermal and dielectric properties of aluminum nitride-reinforced polybenzoxazine hybrids

Compared to traditional epoxy, polybenzoxazine resins have improved thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties. In this article, spherical aluminum nitride (AIN) was studied as a filler in bisphenol A-aniline-based polybenzoxazine (poly(BA-a)). Thermal conductivity was obtained by transient plane source method. Thermal conductivity of each composite gradually increased with enhanced filler amount. Poly(BA-a)/AIN composites also had higher thermal conductivity than systems containing epoxy/AIN....

One-pot synthesis of light-driven polymeric composite phase change materials based on N-doped porous carbon for enhanced latent heat storage capacity and thermal conductivity

Polymeric composite materials were prepared by one-pot synthesis of chromophoric polymer phase change material in nitrogen-doped porous carbon (NPC). Thermal conductivity was found to increase with increasing NPC wt%, enhancing the heating rate with a shorter phase change period....

Enhancement of heat transport in oscillating heat pipe with ternary fluid

An oscillating heat pipe (OHP) is a pipe that transports heat from the evaporator to the condenser via a complex pulsating action. Nanofluids and self-wetting fluids can be used to improve the heat transport capabilities of the OHPs. This study looks at heat transport performances of OHP with different binary fluids. Thermal conductivity was measured using a thermal analyzer, with transient plane source method. Nanofluids were found to have a ...
