The primary advantages of nano-enhanced PCMs include:
Improved Thermal Conductivity: Nanoparticles such as carbon nanotubes and metallic nanoparticles can enhance the thermal conductivity of PCMs, allowing for faster and more efficient heat transfer. Enhanced Stability: The addition of nanoparticles can improve the chemical and thermal stability of PCMs, reducing degradation and extending their operational lifespan. Increased Latent Heat Capacity: Nanoparticles can help increase the latent heat storage capacity of PCMs, enabling them to store more energy per unit volume.
