The phase change heat transfer of nano-enhanced phase change materials (NePCMs) was addressed in a heatsink filled with copper metal foam fins. The NePCM was made of 1-Tetradecanol graphite nanoplatelets. The heatsink was an annulus contained where its outer surface was subject to a convective cooli...
