METHOD OF REDUCE SUPERCOOLING PHENOMENON OF PHASE CHANGE MATERIAL

Satoshi Miyagi

Abstract

In this research, the author proposed a supercooling phenomenon reduction PCM that suppresses the decrease in latent heat by installing a PCM with a small supercooling degree on the heat transfer surface side of the PCM with a large supercooling degree. As a result, it was shown that the supercooling phenomenon reduction PCM can reduce the supercooling degree by forming and growing solidified crystals even when the temperature is higher than the supercooling release temperature. Furthermore, the calculation results for predicting the cooling and heating characteristics of the supercooling phenomenon reduction PCM were in good agreement with the experimental values.
