Computer modelling and experimental investigation of phase change hysteresis of PCMs: The state-of-the-art review

Lubomír Klimeš, +7 more
- 01 Apr 2020 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the phase change hysteresis (PCH) and supercooling (SC) of phase change materials (PCMs) are investigated in terms of the enthalpy-temperature h(T) relationships for the solid-liquid phase changes, and the results indicate that there are only a few modelling approaches for partial phase transitions, and only some of them are reasonably validated with experimental data.
