This paper presents an analysis of viscous fluids and a Rivlin–Ericksen (R‐E) viscoelastic fluid interface under the influence of heat and mass transfer, while both fluids are exposed to an axial electric field. The fluids are restricted within an annular region that is enclosed by two rigid cylinders. The outer section of the annular region holds the R‐E viscoelastic fluid, while the inner section is filled with the viscous fluid. To ascertain the correlation between perturbation growth and wavenumber, the theory of potential flow on viscoelastic–viscous fluids is applied, and the result is represented as a second‐order polynomial. This correlation is numerically solved using the Newton–Raphson method. Variables of viscous flow, such as electric field strength, heat transfer coefficient, viscoelasticity, viscosity, and so forth, are numerically studied. With an increase in electric field strength, the perturbation growth decays and expands for the particular combinations of permittivity and conductivity ratio, showing the dual effect of the axial electric field.

Phase change materials (PCMs) have been envisioned for thermal energy storage (TES) and thermal management applications (TMAs), such as supplemental cooling for air-cooled condensers in power plants (to obviate water usage), electronics cooling (to reduce the environmental footprint of data centers), and buildings. In recent reports, machine learning (ML) techniques have been deployed to improve the sustainability, performance, resilience, robustness, and reliability of TES platforms that use PCMs by leveraging the Cold Finger Technique (CFT) to avoid supercooling (since supercooling can degrade the effectiveness and reliability of TES). Recent studies have shown that reliability of PCMs can be enhanced using additives, such as nucleators and gelling agents, including for organic (paraffin wax) and inorganic (e.g., salt hydrates and eutectics) PCMs. Additionally, material compatibility studies for PCMs with different metals and alloys have also garnered significant attention. Long-term studies for demonstrating the material stability and reliability of candidate PCMs will be summarized in this review book chapter.

“…Each type has its unique composition and phase change mechanism, offering a range of properties and applications. The choice of PCM type depends on factors such as desired melting/freezing temperature, thermal stability, heat transfer characteristics, and environmental considerations [59], [60].…”
