Energy storage not only reduces the mismatch between supply and demand but also improves the performance and reliability of energy systems. The different forms of energy that can be stored, including mechanical, electrical and thermal energy. Phase change materials (PCM) are latent heat storage materials. A large number of phase change materials (organic, inorganic and eutectic) are available in any required temperature range. We concentrated on eutectic materials and made a eutectic by mixing urea and choline chloride. Heat capacity ($C_p$) is one of the most important properties to be considered when a process is developed using the eutectic and currently DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) has been proved as an effective technique to measure the heat capacity. This study focused on measuring heat capacity ($C_p$) of the mixing urea and choline chloride by DSC.

Accurate prediction of the fate and transport of contaminants in soils and sediments is very Important to environmental risk assessment and effective remediation of contaminated soils and sediments. The fate and transport of contaminants in subsurface are affected by geosorbents, especially carbonaceous materials including black carbon. Various physical and chemical treatment methods have been developed to separate different kinds of carbonaceous materials from soils and sediments. However, the effects of these separation methods on the properties of remaining carbonaceous materials including sorption capacity and linearity are unclear. The objective of this study is to determine if the chemical and thermal treatment methods previously used to separate different carbonaceous material fractions affect the properties of carbonaceous materials including longer term sorption capacity of hydrophobic organic contaminants. The results indicate that treatments with hydrochloric acid (HCl)/hydrofluoric acid (HF), trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), sodium hydroxide (NaOH) may not affect the sorption capacity of black carbon reference materials such as char and soot, however, treatments with acid dichromate $(K_2Cr_2O_7/H_2SO_4)$ and heat $(375^{\circ}C)$ for 24 hours in sufficient of oxygen) decrease the sorption capacity of them. The results of longer term sorption isotherm indicate that 2 days might be enough for trichloroethene (TCE) to equilibrate apparently with treated black carbon reference materials. The results suggest that acid dichromate and heat treatments may not appropriate method to investigate sorption properties of black carbon in soils and sediments.

In order to enhance the thermal energy storage capacity of cement mortar and to improve the effective thermal conductivity of paraffin waxes, cement- sand- paraffin wax mixture was investigated. By means of finite difference method, the transient temperature distribution in a hollow cylinder with phase change using average composite properties was obtained, and compared with experimental results. It was shown that the heat absorbed by mixture with $25\%$ paraffin fraction was as much as $50\%$ more than either a concrete mortar or pure paraffin wax in the case of ${\Delta}T=\;18.25^{\circ}C$.

This paper examines a methodology for computing the probability of structural failure of reinforced concrete beams subjected to fire. The significant load variables considered are dead load, sustained live load and fire temperature. Resistance is expressed in terms of moment capacity with random variables taken as yield strength of steel, concrete class (or grade of concrete), beam width and depth. The flexural capacity is determined based on the design equations recommended in Indian standard IS456:2000. Simplified method named $500^{\circ}C$ isotherm method detailed in Eurocode 2 is incorporated for fire design. A transient thermal analysis is conducted using finite element software ANSYS$^{(R)}$ Release15. Reliability is evaluated from the initial state to 4h of fire exposure based on the first order reliability method (FORM). A procedure is coded in MATLAB for finding the reliability index. This procedure is validated with available literature. The effect of various parameters like effective cover, yield strength of steel, grade of concrete, distribution of reinforcement bars and aggregate type on reliability indices are studied. Parameters like effective cover of concrete, yield strength of steel has a significant effect on reliability of beams. Different failure modes like limit state of flexure and limit state of shear are checked.

Thermal degradation characteristics of sucrose was investigated. A 20% sucrose solution was heated to temperatures of $110-150^{\circ}C$ for 1-5 hr. Chromaticity, pH, organic acids, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), free sugars, electron donating ability (EDA), and ascorbic acid equivalent antioxidant capacity (AEAC) of the heated sucrose solutions were evaluated. With increasing temperatures and times, the L-, a-, and b-values decreased; however, total color difference (${\Delta}E_{ab}$) increased. The pH and sucrose contents decreased, and fructose and glucose contents increased with increasing heating temperature and time. Organic acids, such as formic acid, lactic acid, and levulinic acid, and HMF contents increased with increasing heating temperatures and times. EDA (%) and the AEAC of the heated sucrose solutions increased with increasing heating temperature and time. The heated sucrose solution was more effective than unheated sucrose solution, having higher EDA (90 fold), and AEAC (13 fold).

Far-infrared radiation therapies are becoming more popular for blood circulation disorders, cardiovascular disease, skin diseases, inhibit cancer cell, etc replacing conventional operations. In this research, thermal characteristics of heating part in panel radiators, which is effective on the blood circulation disorders were experimentally analyzed. The heating line supplies heat energy to insulation coatings with heat flux of $150mW/m^2$ in normal status and as a result the coatings reached 20% of the heating line temperature. In other words, the insulation itself could increase surface temperature of heating plates by 20% and raise thermal time constant promote blood circulation effect. We also found that space arrangement of the heating lines was an important factor in designing heating parts and both coefficient of heat conduction and density of the heating plate should be also considered for superimpose of thermal diffusion.

This paper presents the development of new anisotropic conductive adhesives with enhanced thermal conductivity for the wide use of adhesive flip chip technology with improved reliability under high current density condition. The continuing downscaling of structural profiles and increase in inter-connection density in flip chip packaging using ACAs has given rise to reliability problem under high current density. In detail, as the bump size is reduced, the current density through bump is also increased. This increased current density also causes new failure mechanism such as interface degradation due to inter-metallic compound formation and adhesive swelling due to high current stressing, especially in high current density interconnection, in which high junction temperature enhances such failure mechanism. Therefore, it is necessary for the ACA to become thermal transfer medium to improve the lifetime of ACA flip chip joint under high current stressing condition. We developed thermally conductive ACA of 0.63 W/m$\cdot$K thermal conductivity using the formulation incorporating $5 {\mu}m$ Ni and $0.2{\mu}m$ SiC-filled epoxy-bated binder system to achieve acceptable viscosity, curing property, and other thermo-mechanical properties such as low CTE and high modulus. The current carrying capability of ACA flip chip joints was improved up to 6.7 A by use of thermally conductive ACA compared to conventional ACA. Electrical reliability of thermally conductive ACA flip chip joint under current stressing condition was also improved showing stable electrical conductivity of flip chip joints. The high current carrying capability and improved electrical reliability of thermally conductive ACA flip chip joint under current stressing test is mainly due to the effective heat dissipation by thermally conductive adhesive around Au stud bumps/ACA/PCB pads structure.
