Performance Assessment of Low-Temperature Thermal Storage with Electromagnetic Control

This study presents electromagnetic-controlled thermal storage (ECTS) that can be directly implemented in strategies of low-temperature waste heat recovery for energy-consuming equipment. A magnetic nanofluid (MNF) prepared from fine iron ferrite ferromagnetic particles is recommended as a latent he...
