Abstract:Summary
Conventional heater is limited by the time and energy‐consuming design, showing high energy loss and causing a negative impact to the environment. A novel air heater integrated with microwave heating and activated carbon (AC) as thermal energy storage has been developed in this study to investigate the heat transfer efficiency in a helical coil. Microwave radiation provides volumetric heating to the AC, which acts as a microwave absorbent to absorb and convert microwave energy into heat energy for stor… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
