Permeability and thermal conductivity of compact chemical and physical adsorbents with expanded natural graphite as host matrix

A review on the use of calcium chloride in applied thermal engineering

“…14). However, the accuracy of the hot wire method, used by Wang et al [124], has been questioned by Tian et al [126] who used the steady-state heat source method to evaluate the heat and mass transfer of a compact impregnated CaCl 2 eEG. The highest thermal conductivity (1.70 W m K À1 ) is reached when the mass fraction of EG in the composite is 50% and the density of the composite is 550 kg m À3 .…”

Experimental and numerical study on the effective thermal conductivity of paraffin/expanded graphite composite

“…Meanwhile, the infiltration route was demonstrated to be inefficient in filling the PCM into the EG. The permeability of EG matrix was experimentally studied by Wang et al [22,23]. They found the permeability decreases while the density of EG matrix increases as higher pressure imposed on the EG matrix sample.…”

Thermal conductivity measurement of thermochemical storage materials

“…This density (577.1 kg/m 3 ) of the Activated Carbon is based on the table 4 in[38]. b This density (48 kg/m 3 ) of the expanded natural graphite is based on the one at 300°C in[38]. c The density (2386 kg/m 3 ) of the strontium bromide hexahydrate comes from[49].…”
