Kinematic characterization of the pressure-dependent PCM impregnation process for radiata pine wood samples
European Journal of Wood and Wood Products(2018)
摘要
This paper reports on the properties of Pinus radiata wood impregnated with an organic phase change material (O-PCM). The tests are aimed at characterizing the kinetics of impregnation (rates, flows, and fronts) and the thermophysical properties (thermal conductivity and specific heat). In particular, a paraffin type O-PCM (octadecane) is used to impregnate dry radiata pine wood in the tangential flow direction at four manometric pressures (0, 1, 2, and 3 bar) and constant temperature of 50 °C. The wood is sapwood from 12-year old P. radiata growing in the Bío-Bío region and dimensioned according to Chilean standard for treated wood sample extraction. The results show that it is viable to impregnate P. radiata wood with O-PCM to improve its thermophysical properties with the purpose of passive conditioning.
