Abstract

In this study inorganic salt hydrated phase-change material (PCM) based on calcium chloride hexahydrate (CaCl2·6H2O) is employed to characterize phase change behavior such as the supercooling degree and phase change temperature. The CaCl2·6H2O nanocomposite PCM contained with different volume fraction wt.% of graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) are verified by heating-cooling curves resulted in enhancing thermal behavior. Results demonstrate the validation phase change temperature of the CaCl2·6H2O pure PCM are significantly referenced, supercooling of CaCl2·6H2O/GNP nanocomposite PCM are studied. The degree of supercooling is within the range of 6.0- 15.2°C, with the maximum reductions of 68% and no phase segregation was observed. The CaCl2·6H2O/GNP nanocomposite PCM presented acceptable thermal reliability, chemical stability, and heat transfer characteristics, thereby reflecting its acceptability for low-temperature thermal energy storage applications.
