PDF A REVIEW ON PHOTOTHERMAL CONVERSION OF SOLAR ENERGY WITH ...

Photothermal conversion phase change solar container materials
In the present study, various phase change materials (PCMs) in combination with thermoelectric device were evaluated to storage solar energy and generate electricity.. Phase change material (PCM)-based energy storage technology can mitigate this issue and substantially improve the utilization efficiency of solar energy. However, most PCMs have a low photothermal conversion capacity and are prone to leaks. To address these two key issues of PCMs, fine modification. . In the present study, various phase change materials (PCMs) in combination with thermoelectric device were evaluated to storage solar energy and generate electricity. The PCMs were Rubitherm 35HC and Rubitherm 42, as industrial PCMs, along with margarine, sheep fat oil, and coconut oil, as edible. . To clarify future research directions, this study first analyzes the heat transfer process of solar-thermal conversion and then reviews solar-thermal phase change composites for high-efficiency harnessing solar energy. The focus is on enhancing heat absorption and conduction while aiming to.
