• Transient cooling of electronics using phase change material (PCM)-based heat sinks (2008, methodology): “, use of partitions/fins, graphite/metal matrices, dispersed high-conductivity particles in the PCM, multiple PCMs [6] and micro-encapsulation of PCM [7,8].”
• Enhancement of Heat Transfer in Latent Heat Storage Modules with Internal Fins (2007, neutral): “A phase-change energy storage system was proposed for air conditioning applications [ 1 2 ].”
• Critical review of latent heat storage systems for free cooling in buildings (2018, positive): “Any diurnal temperature variation below this necessitates careful design considerations coupled with a proper selection of the PCM properties [180].”
• A review of phase change materials for vehicle component thermal buffering (2014, background): “, the PCM itself accounted for less than 20% of total system cost, with the balance going to heat exchange components and other integration elements [172].”
