Liquid-Modulated Photothermal Phenomena in Porous Silicon Nanostructures Studied by μ-Raman Spectroscopy

Oksana Makukha et al.

Summary: In this study, the effect of liquid filling in the nanopore network on thermal transport in porous Si layers was investigated using mu-Raman spectroscopy. The thermal conductivity of porous Si and porous Si-hexadecane composites were estimated by fitting the experimentally measured photoinduced temperature rise with finite element method simulations. The results show that filling the pores with hexadecane leads to (i) an increase in the thermal conductivity of the porous Si-hexadecane composite in a wide range of porosity levels (40-80%), and (ii) a suppression of the characteristic laser-induced phase transition of Si from cubic to hexagonal form.

Fangfang Su et al.

Summary: Solar energy, as a renewable energy, has received extensive attention, especially in the field of solar thermal utilization. Nanofluid-based direct absorption solar collectors (DASCs) are considered an important alternative method for improving solar thermal efficiency. This study proposes a novel Ti3C2Tx-IL-based nanofluid with excellent stability, wide spectrum absorption, and efficient solar energy conversion performance. The nanofluids maintain liquid state in a wide temperature range and exhibit low viscosity.

A generalizable strategy based on the rule of like dissolves like to construct porous liquids with low viscosity for CO2 capture

Yangyang Xin et al.

Summary: We present a simple strategy to prepare type III porous liquids (PLs) with low viscosity by utilizing the rule of like dissolves like. Monoglycidyl ether terminated polydimethylsiloxane (E-PDMS) is covalently attached to the surface of UiO-66-NH2, constructing the pore generator (P-UiO-66). The dispersion of P-UiO-66 in different sterically hindered solvents (PDMS400 or PDMS6000) leads to the formation of type III PLs (P-UiO-66-PLs) with permanent cavities and low viscosities.

Photothermal Conversion and Thermal Management of Magnetic Plasmonic Fe3O4@Au Nanofluids

Ruipeng Wang et al.

Summary: Solar energy, as a sustainable and widely available source of clean energy, has great potential for solving various issues. Nanofluids (NFs)-based direct absorption solar collectors have been widely used in energy-thermal conversion and wastewater purification fields. However, the low photothermal modulation efficiency of NFs limits the industrialization of solar collectors. In this study, a Fe3O4@Au composite structure is constructed using a coprecipitation method, and its optical and photothermal properties are systematically studied. The results show that the Fe3O4@Au NFs have a high solar energy-weighted absorption fraction and excellent solar energy harvesting ability.

Nanoparticle Aggregation and Thermophoretic Particle Deposition Process in the Flow of Micropolar Nanofluid over a Stretching Sheet

Yangyang Yu et al.

Summary: The purpose of this research is to investigate the consequence of thermophoretic particle deposition (TPD) on the movement of a TiO2/water-based micropolar nanoliquid surface in the existence of a porous medium, a heat source/sink, and bioconvection. Through experimental measurements, it was found that improved values of the porous constraint will decline the velocity profile, while improvement in heat source/sink parameter directly affects the temperature profile. Additionally, changes in thermophoretic parameter, bioconvection Peclet number, and Lewis number also have an impact on the concentration and bioconvection profiles.
