Development of fluid latent heat storage material using ethanol water solution.

Author(s) : OHKUBO H., MATSUMOTO N., FUKUCHI M., et al.

Summary

There are three two-phase regions in the phase diagram of an ethanol water solution. If any of these three regions are chosen, it is probable that the solid-liquid two phase can be used as a latent heat storage material with fluidity. In the paper, a fluid material for latent heat storage was developed using an ethanol water solution to utilize low-temperature energy of LNG. Experiments were conducted under stirred conditions and the fluidity of the solution was measured for various concentrations. It was found that a fluid mushy formation can be made at low temperatures and that this formation can be used as a latent heat storage material.
