Abstract Scope |
Metallic phase change materials can provide an energy dense, high heat transfer solution to the problem of intermittency with latent heat storage for stationary and automotive applications. However, many molten metals will react at high temperatures with commercial container materials such as stainless steel. Determination of compatibility is necessary to provide lifetime and cost estimates of a thermal storage system. An alternative to overcome the incompatibility of molten metals with container materials may be avoiding a reaction by improving the surface when coating processes are applied.
This presentation will show experimental results in determining compatibility of metallic phase change materials (mPCM) and alumina coating on steel housing material at the Institute for Material Physics in Space at the German Aerospace Centre (DLR). This work includes experimentally accelerated reaction experiments and different surface characterisation techniques. |
