Effect of microstructure on melting in metal-foam/paraffin composite phase change materials

The performance of phase change materials (PCM) as energy storage units are often limited by their low thermal conductivities that constrain the rates of melting or solidification. Highly porous metal foam composite PCMs are increasingly being used to abate this limitation and enable greater control...
