Abstract
For the purpose of the utilization as a high-functional thermal insulation material, the analytical investigation on the heat transfer mechanism of thermal wave propagation within a solid with dispersed phase change material has been performed. The disperse condition of the phase change material and its weight ratio, the wave cycle of temperature, and melting temperature of the phase change material were set as the parameters , in the present analysis. The results have shown that the thermal-wave propagation characteristics were greatly influenced by the latent heat of phase change material and its disperse condition.
