The common solid-liquid phase change, liquid-gas phase change and solid-gas phase change are all attributed to the first order transition. For example, when ice melts into water at the same temperature, it needs to absorb heat and its volume becomes smaller so that this phase change also ...

The thermostat on the heater was set to a temperature of 200 °C, which is considerably higher than the melting point of pure PCM (165–168 °C). After extensive sonification, well-dispersed homogeneous nano-enhanced PCM samples were generated. The XRD peaks of the pure PCM, MWCNT, and ...
