Experimental investigation on thermal performance of phase change materials–metal foam composites in ocean thermal engine

Because battery-powered underwater vehicles have limited long-term mission capacity, the development of ocean thermal engines that can harvest ocean thermal energy (OTE) is a potential solution to this “energy limitation” issue. Ocean thermal engines using solid-liquid phase change materials (PCM) f...
