摘要:

相变储热技术凭借其储热密度高、温度波动小、成本低廉等优势在太阳能利用和余热回收等领域具有巨大应用潜力,但相变材料的低导热系数严重限制了其实际应用。为此,本文运用“两步法”制备出不同质量分数的石蜡/Fe3O4纳米颗粒高导热系数复合相变材料,对其热物性进行了综合表征,并将其与纯石蜡在管壳式储热单元中的储/放热性能进行了对比研究。研究结果表明:与纯石蜡相比,Fe3O4纳米颗粒能够有效地提高复合相变材料的导热系数;当纳米颗粒的质量分数为5%时,固态和液态导热系数分别提升了53%和79%,完全熔化和凝固时间可分别缩短29.69%和29.81%;尽管复合相变材料的储热量和放热量分别下降了5.62%和7.32%,但是储热和放热过程的?效率分别提升了0.43%和3.37%;Fe3O4纳米颗粒的添加降低了储热和放热过程中的自然对流强度。

Abstract:

Phase change thermal energy storage technology has remarkable application potential in the use of solar energy and the recovery of waste heat, based on its advantages of high thermal storage density, low-temperature variation, and low cost. However, its practical application is limited by the low thermal conductivity of phase-change materials (PCMs). Thus, in this paper, paraffin/nano-iron oxide (Fe3O4) composite PCMs with different fraction masses were prepared using a two-step technique to enhance the thermal conductivity of the PCMs, and its thermo-physical properties were comprehensively characterized. In addition, the charging and discharging performance of composite PCMs were investigated and compared with that of pure paraffin. The results showed that adding nano-Fe3O4 could effectively improve the thermal conductivity of composite PCMs compared with pure paraffin. When the mass fraction of nano-Fe3O4 was 5%, the thermal conductivity of composite PCMs could be enhanced by 53% in a solid-state and by 79% in a liquid state, and the total melting and solidification time could be shortened by 29.69% and 29.81%, respectively. Although the stored and released heat declined by 5.62% and 7.32%, the exergy efficiency was improved by 0.43% and 3.37% during the charging and discharging processes. The intensity of natural convection heat transfer in the charging and discharging processes was weakened by nano-Fe3O4.
