Abstract:

The improvement of the heat transfer rate of phase change material(PCM)is studied by mixing with carbon fiber(CF)which is a good heat conductor. The composite PCM is prepared by blending CF and n-Docosane and its thermal performance is tested using the method of differential scanning calorimetry(DSC)analysis and thermogravimetric/differential thermal analysis(TG/DTA). In addition, the influence of the mixing amount and the length of CF on the thermal conductivity of n-Docosane are investigated. The results show that CF can significantly improve the heat transfer rate of n-Docosane, and the mixing amount and the length of CF are two influence factors. The heat storage and release rates increase with the increase in the mixing amount of CF. Moreover, the melting point of n-Docosane is increased from 40.2 to 50.8 ℃ after being mixed with CF. The heating time is decreased from 720 to 660 s by mixing with 6% of CF, and is decreased to 600 s by mixing with 10% of CF.

对采用热的良导体——碳纤维改善相变材料的热传导速率开展了研究.通过碳纤维与甘二烷的物理混合制备了相变复合材料.采用示差扫描分析法、热重分析法和差示热分析法测试了此相变复合材料的热性能.研究了碳纤维的掺量与长度对甘二烷热传导性能的影响.研究结果表明, 碳纤维能有效地改善甘二烷的热传导速率, 碳纤维的掺量和长度是2个主要的影响因素.随着碳纤维掺量的增加, 甘二烷的储热、放热速率增加.掺入碳纤维后, 甘二烷的熔点从40.2 ℃ 增加到 50.8 ℃.当掺入6%的碳纤维后, 升温所需时间从720 s降至660 s;当掺入10%的碳纤维后, 升温所需时间从720 s降至600 s.
