Abstract:To utilize a super-hydrophobic tetradecane-adsorbed marshmallow-like gel as a phase-change material (PCM) as a carrier for latent heat transportation by mixing the gel particles with sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) solution, the dispersion characteristics and flow characteristics of a marshmallow-like gel slurry were investigated. To investigate the dispersion characteristics of the slurry, visual observation of the slurry under static conditions was performed while varying the concentration of CMC, and t… Show more
