Abstract

In this paper, we used a commercial paraffin type C25H52 which was doped with TiO2, ALCL3, and AL2O3 in the range of 0 and 20% by mass and atom. The monitoring of the temperature over time was measured during the descent of 150°C to ambient. For all dopants, the phase change time, thermal conductivity, latent heat, and specific heat increase with the doping rate and the mass of the paraffin. The experimental results show that the phase change time, thermal conductivity, latent heat, and specific heat are more important in the case of doping with ALCL3 compared to the other two dopants.
