description | The thermal storage performance of binary mixtures consisting of fatty acids and liquid paraffin (LP) was studied experimentally. The study is to look for the material with suitable phase transition temperature and high phase change latent heat. The phase transition temperatures of binary mixtures consisting of capric acid and other four kinds of fatty acid are between 20°C and 30°C, and the phase change latent heat is high. They are ideal phase change materials used in the wall. The binary mixtures consisting of stearic acid, palmitic acid, lauric acid (LA) and myristic acid have high phase transition temperatures, and they are not suitable to use in the wall. The phase transition temperatures of mixtures consisting of LP and LA are between 20°C and 30°C, and the phase change latent heat is high. They can be used in the wall. The thermal stability of fatty binary mixtures is good. |
