Challenges in Computer Modeling of Phase Change Materials

Original language description

Phase Change Materials (PCMs) are a well established category of materials with many possible applications ranging from the stabilization of temperature to the heat or cold storage. The main principle of PCMs is the utilization of latent heat of phase change for the energy storage. Though many pure chemical elements can be used as PCMs, a PCM very often consists of a number of substances. The main reason for creating the PCM as mixtures of various sub-stances is to achieve a desirable melting temperature for a particular application. However, these mixed PCMs require accurate and reliable methods for the determination of physical properties, since for numerical modeling the thermal properties of materials and their proper determination represent a significant issue that considerably affects the accuracy and credibility of numerical simulations and their outcomes. The thermal properties of PCMs are usually obtained by the Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) method based on the tempe
