Active cooling by endothermic hydrocarbon fuels (EHFs) is considered as a practical approach to deal with the thermal management problem of hypersonic aircrafts. As a typical component of EHFs, decalin is usually thermally stable while it is apt to coke and has poor combustion performance. n-Hexadecane, a normal alkane with a relatively high H/C ratio, can effectively improve the combustion performance of EHFs, and 1-butanol has remarkable anti-coking properties. As a fundamental work for fuel design, decalin, n-hexadecane, and 1-butanol were selected as model compounds to construct a surrogate fuel system, which was used to investigate the effects of composition and condition on its thermophysical properties. Densities (ρ) and viscosities (η) of the ternary system of decalin (1) + n-hexadecane (2) + 1-butanol (3) and corresponding binary systems were measured at temperatures T = (293.15 to 333.15) K and pressure p = 0.1 MPa. The excess molar volumes (VmE) and the viscosity deviations (Δη) of the mixtures were calculated and fitted to several semi-empirical equations. The tendencies of VmE and Δη with composition and temperature were discussed from intermolecular force and molecular size, respectively.

Oxygenates are usually used as fuel additives. Recently, di-isopropyl ether (DIPE) has been considered as the potential fuel additive for the replacement of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE). So it is essential to research its thermophysical properties. In this paper, the speed of sound in DIPE was measured from 303.15 K to 673.15 K up to 10 MPa using Brillouin light scattering (BLS), including saturated liquid/vapour, and the liquid and supercritical regions. The saturated liquid/vapour and single phase liquid results were fitted as functions of temperature and pressure. The correlations represent the data with AADs of 0.62% for the saturated liquid, 0.44% for the saturated vapour and 0.73% for the liquid, respectively. Moreover, the variation of speed of sound with temperature and pressure was also analysed.

Capric acid, lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, and their eutectics are chosen as phase change materials to constitute the phase change slurries for the first time. Under the emulsification of span20/SDS, phase change slurries with 30 wt % fatty acids are then fabricated by high-speed shearing. Thermophysical properties of phase change slurries are characterized by means of DSC. Results indicate that eutectic phase change slurries exhibit lower freezing/melting peak temperatures than corresponding fatty acids slurries. In the melting, peak temperatures from 22.36 °C to 55.61 °C and the freezing peak temperatures from 14.61 to 48.97 °C, latent heat fusion of eutectic phase change slurries are between 36.32 J/g and 51.82 J/g, 34.35 J/g and 48.58 J/g in the endothermic/exothermic processes. Heat fusion has not demonstrated obvious changes under the heating and melting processes, and these values are approximately equal to those of pure fatty acids multiplied by the mass fraction. Additionally, supercooling of phase change slurries are between 0.55 °C and 6.55 °C, and this phenomenon might be induced by the crystal structures formed in fatty acids eutectics.

Carbonates have great application potential as heat transfer and thermal energy storage media in the development of future phase change materials. This paper gives thermophysical properties enhancement study on ternary carbonates in liquid state by adding aluminum oxide nanoparticles, multi-walled carbon nanotubes, graphene nanosheets, and experimentally evaluate the performance strengthen ability of multi-dimensional nanoparticles. The thermal diffusivities and specific heats of the prepared samples by the water solution method are determined using the laser flash technique and the differential scanning calorimetry at liquid state, respectively. A thermogravimetric analyzer is deployed for evaluate the high-temperature thermal stability of the composite ternary carbonates. Scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy techniques are utilized to examine the surface morphologies and chemical structures of the samples. The results indicate that there is a cooperative reinforcement impact on the thermophysical properties of ternary carbonate by utilizing zero-dimensional Al 2 O 3 nanoparticles and two-dimensional graphene nanosheets, with a maximum improvement of 56.7 % for thermal conductivity, and 10.3 % for specific heat, which is apparently larger than adding any single nanoparticle. The composites exhibit superior thermal cycling stability after low-high temperature experiment, and samples can maintain thermal stability until 700 °C in the thermogravimetric analysis.

We wished to improve the thermophysical properties and thermal stability of meso -erythritol (ET) for storage of thermal energy. Hence, capsules containing ET with polysiloxane (pSiO) shells were fabricated using ultraviolet-assisted in situ polymerization, and the effects of encapsulation and additives doping on the thermophysical properties of ET were studied. Differential scanning calorimetry showed that the heat-release performance of the composite (pSiO-C-A@ET) upon addition of 3.0 wt. % carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and 9.0 wt. % nano-α-Al 2 O 3 increased significantly from 64.1% to 89.0%, and the supercooling degree decreased dramatically from 89.5 °C to 17.0 °C, compared with that of pure ET. Spectroscopy (Fourier transform-infrared, x-ray diffraction) implied no change in the crystal structure of ET after encapsulation by pSiO shells. Addition of a nucleation agent (nano-α-Al 2 O 3 ) and thickening agent (CMC) had no effect on the crystal structure of pSiO-C-A@ET. The thermal conductivity of pSiO@ET and pSiO-C-A@ET capsules increased by 6.2% and 20.0% compared with that of pure ET (0.65 W/m·K) at 25 °C, respectively. The thermal conductivity was enhanced noticeably by doping with nano-α-Al 2 O 3 . Results from accelerated thermal cycling suggested that pSiO@ET and pSiO-C-A@ET capsules exhibited good thermal stability and thermal durability. These data suggest that composite phase-change materials could be employed for applications involving storage of thermal energy.

Ethanol is a common industrial substance and widely applied in technological and scientific applications, of which the thermophysical properties especially near the critical point are scarce. In this work, the thermal diffusivity of ethanol was determined by the dynamic light scattering method in the temperature ranging from (293 to 564) K and along six isobaric lines including 0.1, 2.5, 5, 6.2, 7.5 and 10 MPa. The relative uncertainty of the thermal diffusivity experimental system is estimated to be less than 2.6% for coverage factor of k = 2 with the level of confidence 0.95. The variation of thermal diffusivity with the temperature and pressure was analyzed. In addition, the comparison between the experimental data and the calculated values from thermal conductivity was made, and the absolute average of relative deviation (AARD) between them is 0.96%.

Deep eutectic solvents are now widely used in metal electrochemical deposition, biomass catalysis and material synthesis because of their advantages of greenness, low cost, good biocompatibility and biodegradability, and it is proved that DESs have great potential for its utilization as heat transfer fluids. In this work, eight DESs were prepared by thermal method using choline chloride as the hydrogen bond acceptor and glycerol, polyethylene glycol 600, lactic acid and o-cresol as the hydrogen bond donor. Based on the flow calorimetry method, the specific heat capacity system was established and its reliability and precision were verified by measuring the specific heat capacity of deionized water. The maximum deviation of the experimental value and the standard value under the pressure 101 kPa was 2.03%, and the average absolute deviation was 1.01%, and the repeatability was less than 1.5%. Then, the densities and the constant pressure specific heat capacities of eight DESs in the temperature range of 293 K–353 K and 293 K–373 K were measured respectively. The experimental results could support for the scale utilization of DESs.

As one of higher n -alkanes, n -dodecane is an important component of surrogate fuels for aviation kerosene, of which the accurate knowledge of its thermophysical properties is necessary for industrial application. The speed of sound in n -dodecane was measured by the Brillouin light scattering (BLS) in the vicinity of the critical point, of which the examined regions are T = (433.49 to 678.84) K along seven isobaric lines at p = (1.85, 2.0, 2.2, 4.0, 6.0, 8.0, and 10.0) MPa. The relative expanded uncertainty of BLS experimental system is estimated to be less than 1.2% with the confidence level of 95% (coverage factor, k = 2). Polynomial representations for the speed of sound in liquid n -dodecane was fitted by the experimental results, and the average absolute deviation and maximum absolute deviation are 0.70% and 1.96%, respectively. Moreover, the accuracy of the multiparameter equation of state proposed by Lemmon were assessed by the experimental speeds of sound in the whole investigated p - T region.

Solar salt (SS), serving as both a thermal energy storage (TES) material and heat transfer fluid (HTF), plays a critical role in determining the overall efficiency of concentrating solar power (CSP) plants through its thermophysical properties. Thus, a high-temperature static melting method and ultrasonic aqueous solution method was used to prepare nano CuO-SS nanocomposites for investigating the thermal properties improvement of SS by two different particle sizes of nano CuO (40 nm and 100 nm). The liquid specific heat capacity (c p ) appeared a trend of first increasing and then decreasing with the addition of nano CuO. It was 1.99 J/(g·K) and 1.81 J/(g·K) when the two nano CuO content was both 1.5 wt% in two system, and there was an increase of 28.39 % (nanocomposite CuO1-SS-4 of CuO1-SS system, Cu1SS-4) and 16.77 % (nanocomposite of CuO2-SS system, Cu2SS-4) compared with the pure SS respectively. The nanocomposites Cu1SS-4/Cu2SS-4 maintained excellent thermal stability, showing no change in their working temperature range compared to pure SS. The uniform dispersion of nano CuO particles was confirmed through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) characterization. The superior heat storage capacity results from the greater surface area and higher surface energy of smaller nano CuO, which facilitated more efficient thermal energy storage in the system. It had increasement of 47.25 % and 56.04 % about thermal conductivity of nanocomposite Cu1SS-4 and Cu2SS-4. The nitrate-based nanocomposite as a promising candidate material for thermal energy storage, due to its high heat storage, excellent chemical compatibility, large suitable working temperature and high thermal stability.

Due to the limitations of using biodiesel directly or blended with petroleum diesel, alcohols are always employed as the additives to improve the certain properties of biodiesel. In this work, experimental investigations are conducted on the thermophysical properties, especially the density and viscosity, of binary mixtures containing the component of the biodiesel, namely methyl myristate, with higher alcohols, including 1-propanol, 1-butanol and 1-pentanol at atmospheric pressure from 303.15 K to 333.15 K. The Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann equation is introduced to correlate the viscosity. The derived property of thermal expansion coefficient is calculated based on the experimental density. The excess properties are obtained to further understand the interactions between the ester and the alcohols. The positive value of the excess molar volume and negative value of viscosity deviation are observed, indicating that the increasing contribution of the repulsive forces between methyl ester and the alcohols.

Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) has captured significant interest and the electrolyte material is the key during operating. The present work introduces a series of intermediate temperature perovskite materials regarding of synthesis and characterization method. Corresponding thermophysical properties including thermal diffusivity, specific heat and thermal conductivity were determined at relevant temperature range. The result shows that thermal diffusivity has a stable tendency for the intermediate temperature electrolytes materials; Ba 3 NbMoO 8.5 has the highest specific heat and BaSc 0.8 MoNb 0.2 O 2.8 has the highest thermal conductivity at 873 K. Besides, a 3-D model is established including transient state and steady state. After combining intermediate temperature electrolyte materials with different thermophysical properties, it is found that the maximum temperature gradient and thermal shock exist at switching time ( t = 600 s) and the tendency are controversial for each other. Besides, after comparing different supported structure of SOFC, a systematic selection strategy is provided for IT-SOFC application. Cathode-supported structure SOFC is an ideal choice for long term usage, which has a low temperature gradient; whereas electrolyte-supported structure with Na 0.5 Bi 0.5 TiO 3 electrolyte is beneficial to quick start-up system, which has the lowest thermal shock.

Density is one of the most important thermophysical properties of aviation fuel for the advanced fuel-cooled thermal management. The density of a hydrocarbon fuel JP-10 was measured using a gamma-ray radial method calibrated with deionized water, cyclohexane, and a mixture of n-heptane and n-octane. The average absolute deviation (AAD) of deionized water is 0.22% under 3.0 MPa and 0.43% under 5.0 MPa, that of cyclohexane is 0.80% under 5.0 MPa, and that of the mixture of n-heptane and n-octane is 0.33% under 5.1 MPa. The experimental density of JP-10 was reported at 267 to 873 K under the pressure of 0.70 to 6.00 MPa. Two empirical correlations were used to fit the liquid and gas density data separately. The results are that the AAD for all the liquid data is 0.46%, and that for all the gas data is 6.12%. Finally, the isobaric thermal expansion was calculated.
