Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Multi stages phase change latent thermal storage heat exchange system which is useful for an ambient temperature range were experimentally investigated to develop a universal air conditioning system and verity the validity as an energy saving system for recycling low level thermal energy. We focused on lauric, myristic and capric acids which are some of fatty acids as a thermal storage medium. Their acids are some of phase change latent heat storage materials which are harmless to the human body. The heat transport mechanisms which accompany a melting process and a solidification process were analyzed using an appropriate visualization and numerical computation.
