以三水醋酸钠(SAT)为基质相变材料,十二水合磷酸氢二钠(DSP)为成核剂,羧甲基纤维素钠(CMC)为增稠剂,采用熔融共混法,制备得到了热物性能良好的SAT/DSP/CMC复合相变储热材料,并应用于相变储热式电热水器样机中。通过实验研究了不同种类及比例的成核剂和增稠剂对SAT热物性能的影响。将该相变材料应用于相变储热式20L电热水器样机。结果表明:市场上传统的50L电热水器,储热完全后在不断电模式下可释放40℃热水100.5L,能量可利用率为50.5%;相同工况下,相变储热式20L电热水器可释放40℃热水169L,能量可利用率为84.8%,显著提升了热水器容量和能量利用效率,表明该SAT复合相变储热材料在储热式电热水器中实际应用前景广阔。
Using sodium acetate trihydrate (SAT) as the matrix phase change material,dodecahydrate disodium hydrogen phosphate (DSP) as the nucleating agent,and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) as the thickening agent,a composite phase change thermal storage material (SAT/DSP/CMC) with excellent thermal properties was prepared via melt blending method and applied in the prototype of phase change heat storage electric water heater.The effects of varying types and ratios of nucleating agents and thickening agents on the thermal properties of SAT were investigated through experiments.The phase change material was applied in a 20L phase change thermal storage electric water heater prototype.The material's performance was compared to a traditional 50L electric water heater and the results indicated that while the traditional heater released 100.5L of 40℃ hot water with an energy utilization rate of 50.5%,the phase change heater released 169L with an energy utilization rate of 84.8%.These findings demonstrated significant improvements in capacity and energy efficiency,and indicated the broad application potential of SAT composite materials in thermal storage electric water heaters.
