  2. Phase-change material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-change_material

    Solid-liquid phase-change materials are usually encapsulated for installation in the end application, to be contained in the liquid state. In some applications, especially when incorporation to textiles is required, phase change materials are micro-encapsulated. Micro-encapsulation allows the material to remain solid, in the form of small ...

  3. GeSbTe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeSbTe

    GeSbTe (germanium-antimony-tellurium or GST) is a phase-change material from the group of chalcogenide glasses used in rewritable optical discs and phase-change memory applications. Its recrystallization time is 20 nanoseconds, allowing bitrates of up to 35 Mbit /s to be written and direct overwrite capability up to 10 6 cycles.

  4. Thermal energy storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_energy_storage

    Phase change materials used for thermal storage are capable of storing and releasing significant thermal capacity at the temperature that they change phase. These materials are chosen based on specific applications because there is a wide range of temperatures that may be useful in different applications and a wide range of materials that ...

  5. Computational Fluid Dynamics for Phase Change Materials

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_Fluid...

    Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modeling and simulation for phase change materials (PCMs) is a technique used to analyze the performance and behavior of PCMs. The CFD models have been successful in studying and analyzing the air quality, natural ventilation and stratified ventilation, air flow initiated by buoyancy forces and temperature space for the systems integrated with PCMs.

  6. Outlast Technologies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outlast_Technologies

    Outlast Technologies, commonly referred to as Outlast, develops and sells phase change materials (PCMs) in the United States and internationally. Outlast offers Thermocules, a microencapsulated phase change materials, which are incorporated into fabrics and fibers for absorbing, storing, and releasing excess heat. The company’s products ...

  7. Phase-change memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-change_memory

    Recent research on PCM has been directed towards attempting to find viable material alternatives to the phase-change material Ge 2 Sb 2 Te 5 (GST), with mixed success. Other research has focused on the development of a Ge Te–Sb 2 Te 3 superlattice to achieve non-thermal phase changes by changing the co-ordination state of the germanium atoms ...

  8. Heat recovery ventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_recovery_ventilation

    The majority of research interest in PCMs is the application of phase change material integration into traditional porous building materials such as concrete and wall boards. Kosny et al. [19] analyzed the thermal performance of buildings that have PCM-enhanced construction materials within the structure. Analysis showed that the addition of ...

  9. Cold-energy battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold-energy_battery

    A cold-energy battery utilizes the properties of an advanced phase-change material (PCM) to maintain temperature as battery thermal management. As with a standard electrical battery, a cold energy battery stores energy and releases depending on the energy demand on it. It can then be recharged by placing in a temperature environment conducive ...
