Supercooling is a natural phenomenon that keeps a phase change material (PCM) in its
liquid state at a temperature lower than its solidification temperature. In the field of thermal …

Over the past few decades, tremendous progress has been made in the development of
particle-based discrete simulation methods versus the conventional continuum-based …

Magnesium (Mg)-based materials are a new generation of alloys with the exclusive ability to
be biodegradable within the human/animal body. In addition to biodegradability, their …

In this paper, a numerical model is established to predict the phase change material (PCM)
melting process in porous media. The heat transfer enhancement technique using metal …

The use of electric appliances equipped with lithium-ion batteries, have been increasing
every day. The energy density of lithium-ion batteries is high; however, their lifespan and …

This article investigates thermal management systems (TMS) of lithium-ion battery made
from pure octadecane, pure gallium and octadecane–Al foam composite materials by …

Heat pipes (HPs) and thermosyphons (TSs) are widely recognized as being excellent
passive thermal transport devices that can have effective thermal conductivities orders of …

Thermal energy storage (TES) has the capability to absorb, store and release heat based on
dynamic surrounding environmental conditions. Sensible energy storage captures or …

Today, higher-power computer chips are available, but they generate too much heat that
irreparably damages inside components. In this paper, a horizontal phase change material …

The main focus of this book is on oscillating heat pipe (OHP) science and technology, which
has made tremendous advances in the past 20 years. Heat transfer processes in an OHP …
