It is found that in the tubes with coaxially inserted cylindrical bars, the heat transfer effects of functionally thermal fluid become more and more pronounced with the Ste de- creasing. This is similar to be case of functionally thermal fluid flowing in smooth straight tubes. Compared with the results receiving from smooth straight tubes, the heat transfer of functional thermal fluid in tubes with coaxially inserted cylindrical bars has been significantly enhanced. And this effect becomes more apparent as the diameter of coaxially inserted cylindrical bars increases meanwhile, however, energy consuming of the tubes shows the same trend.展开更多

The thermal properties, surface morphologies, magnetic properties and iron nano-particles content of the magnetic phasechange microcapsules were investigated by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), differential scan- ning calorimetry (DSC), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) and inductively coupled plasma quantometry (ICP). The influence of iron nano-particles on morphologies was also considered. The results indicate that the melting point of magnetic phase-change microcapsules is almost identical to that of paraffin. The magnetism parameters such as specific saturation magnetization and residual magnetization of magnetic phase-change microcapsules increase with the increase of iron nano-particles content.展开更多
