The role of contact angle in the thermal conductivity of microencapsulated phase change material suspensions
The purpose of this article is to investigate the effect of the wettability on the thermal conductivity of microencapsulated phase change material suspensions. The wettability of the capsules, characterized by contact angle between solid capsules and carrier fluid, was modified by mixing two selecte...
