Evaluation of a typical integrated solar absorption cooling system has been carried out to determine its overall performance. Analysis of the results revealed an operational efficiency of 61% for the solar collectors at a mean differential temperature (ΔT) of 51 °C as compared with the...

In this paper, 3-dimensional geometric models have been developed to evaluate the particle distribution effect on the thermal performance of a composite high conductivity laminated MEPCM board. For the purpose of comparison three geometric configurations (rectangular, triangular and pyramidal)...

This study evaluates the concept of developing a non-deform phase change energy storage material possessing higher thermal conductivity and energy storage density through pressure compaction process. The theoretical and experimental investigations have shown that the technique is able to reduce...
