Focusing of phase change microparticles for local heat transfer enhancement in laminar flows

Phase change material (PCM) suspensions have received wide spread attention for increased thermal storage in various thermal systems such as heat sinks for electronics and solar thermal applications. To achieve further heat transfer enhancement, this paper investigates the effect of focusing micron-...
