The formation of heat islands causes high energy demand for space cooling and peak cooling loads in conditioned buildings. High-temperature fluctuations on a building roof may cause mechanical stress and increase surface deterioration. Thermal energy storage (TES) systems using microencapsulated phase-change materials (MPCMs) have been recognized as one of the most advanced energy technologies for enhancing the energy efficiency and sustainability of buildings. In this study, we prepared MPCM/paint composites for mitigating the heat island effect and reducing peak temperature. In addition, we carried out thermal and physical analysis of prepared MPCM composite samples by means of SEM, FTIR spectroscopy, DSC, and TGA. Further, we evaluated the dynamic heat transfer performance of heat-storage tiles painted with 10 g of heat-storage paint. From the obtained results, we deduced that MPCM/hydrophilic paint composites are more applicable to various fields, including the building sector, than MPCM/hydrophobic paint composites. On the basis of SEM and FTIR spectroscopy results, we concluded that materials with hydrophilic properties are more compatible with MPCMs than those with hydrophobic properties. In addition, DSC analysis results revealed that MPCM/hydrophilic paint composites have better compatibility, higher latent heat capacity, and better thermal properties than other composites. TGA results showed that hydrophilic-paint-based composites have higher thermal durability than hydrophobic-paint-based composites. Finally, a lot of MPCM-loaded heat-storage tiles showed lower peak temperatures at all measurement positions.

The synthesis of stearic acid composite phase change material (PCM) was investigated and the samples produced were characterized for use in latent heat storage, using a simple chemical sol-gel process. The PCM was encapsulated to tetraethyl orthosilicate by various preparation ratios of stearic acid (5, 10, 15, 20, 30 and 50%). Fourier transformation infrared spectroscope (FT-IR) and X-Ray diffraction (XRD) were performed to determine the chemical structure and crystalloid phase of the microencapsulated PCM. SATEOS1 (5%) shows the best proportion for the PCM. With the presence of stearic acid as core materials and SiO2 as the supporting materials, it does not show any chemical reaction between both of them. SATEOS1 shows promising potential for thermal energy storage as it shows a better encapsulation efficiency and good thermal stability.

본 논문에서는 난방용 축열보드에 응용하기 위해서 미세캡슐을 함유한 축열블럭의 열성능 특성을 조사하였다. 상변화 물질인 $CH_3COONa{\cdot}3H_2O$를 미세캡슐 형태로 제조하였고 미세캡슐 함유량이 각각 10%, 20%가 되도록 시멘트 몰타르와 혼합하여 축열블럭을 제작하였다. 축열블럭의 축열 및 방열 특성을 분석하기 위하여 유량과 유입 냉각 온도를 변화시켰다. 실험결과를 보면 미세캡슐 함유량이 증가할 수록 블럭에 축열되는 축열량은 증가를 하였고 방열시간도 증가를 하였다. 그리고 방열과정시 유량이 증가하고 유입 냉각온도가 감소함에 따라 방열시간은 감소하였다. 순수블럭(0% 미세캡슐 함유량)은 방열과정시 총괄 열전달 계수는 시간에 따라서 일정하게 유지를 하지만 축열블럭에서는 시간이 지남에 따라 증가를 하였다.

The present study has been conducted for manufacturing MPCM (microencapsulated phase change material) slurry with in-situ polymerization and proving their applicabilities for cooling system. The tetradecane as a core material of MPCM is coated with melamine. The produced capsules are observed by the optical microscope and SEM for superficial shapes and analysed their properties by DSC and particle size distribution by FA particle analyzer. It is found that narrow size distribution in 1 to $10{\mu}m$ is resulted in $5{\mu}m$ of average diameter and $9^{\circ}C$ melting temperature. The durability of MPCM capsules is tested with various types of pumps such as centrifugal, peristaltic, and mono. For the centrifugal and peristaltic pumps the breakage fraction of the capsules is resulted within $6\%$ during 10,000 cycles, while the mono is over $8\%$. The cooling system, which has adopted MPCM slurry as a medium for transporting cold thermal energy, is designed to investigate the performance of newly developed coolant. The discharging times of cold energy in circulating 10 and $20wt\%$ MPCM slurry are lasted to 105 and 285 minutes, respectively.

최근들어 에너지 고갈로 인해 에너지 저장 및 대체 에너지에 대한 관심이 점차 높아 지고 있다. 이로 인해 상변화 물질을 이용한 에너지 저장 및 이동에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 SPG막(Shirasu porous glass membrane)을 통한 막유화법을 이용하여 상변화 물질인 파라핀계 루비덤$^{(R)}$ (RT-21과 RT-24)을 분산상으로 하여 단분산성 마이크로 입자를 제조하고, 외부를 실리카로 코팅하여 열정 안정성을 향상시키고 열적 특성을 조사하였다. 단분산성 루비덤$^{(R)}$ 입자의 제조를 위해 분산상 압력, 유화제 농도, 루비덤$^{(R)}$과 실리카의 비율을 변수로 하여 평균 입자 크기 $7-8{\mu}m$를 얻었다. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)와 Thermogravimetry analysis (TGA)를 이용하여 열적 안정성과 잠열 등의 열적 특성을 조사하였고, Particle size analyzer (PSA), Scanning electron microscopy(SEM), optical microscopy를 이용하여 입자 분포와 캡슐화 유무를 확인하였다. 또한, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR)를 통하여 정성분석을 시행하였다. 결과적으로, 막유화법을 이용하여 얻은 실리카 코팅된 단분산성 루비덤$^{(R)}$ 입자는 향상된 열적 안정성을 보였으며, 순수한 루비덤$^{(R)}$의 80% 이상의 잠열을 유지하는 것을 보여 기존의 상변화 물질의 상안정성을 보완하여 열저장성 기능성 벽지와 건축물, 인테리어 제품에 사용 가능함을 알 수 있었다.

The present study has been conducted for manufacturing MPCM (microencapsulated phase change material) slurry with in-situ polymerization and proving their applicabilities for tooling system. The surface of MPCM is composed of melamine, while tetradecane, paraffin wax, is centered in the MPCM. The produced capsules are observed by the optical microscope and SEM for superficial shapes. Their thermal properties are measured by DSC. Their size distributions are observed by FA particle analyzer. A narrow size distribution from 1 to 10 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ with 5 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ of average diameter was observed. Melting temperature was 6.7$^{\circ}C$. The durability of MPCM was tested with various types of pump such as centrifugal, peristaltic, and mono pumps. During 10000 cycles the fraction of broken capsules was smaller than 6% for the centrifugal and peristaltic pumps, while bigger value of 8% for the mono pump. A cooling system, which adopted MPCM slurry as a media for transporting cold thermal energy, was designed to investigate the performance of the MPCM. The discharging times of 10 and 20 wt% MPCM slurry were lasted up to 105 and 285 minutes longer, respectively, than the water cooling system.

MPCM (Microencapsulated Phase Change Material) slurries show several advantages over the sensible heat transportation system. In this study, a numerical model for a vapor compression refrigeration system using MPCM slurries as a secondary fluid through an evaporator was developed, and the system performance was compared with that using water. Generally, the MPCM system showed higher performance than the water system. The COP of the MPCM system was higher by 16.6 to 18.6% than that of the water system at all conditions. The MPCM slurry yields better performance in the aspect of heat transfer and heat transportation comparing to the sensible heat transfer medium such as water.
