Study of Phase Change Material and Waste Iron Ore Tailing, for Thermal Energy Storage and Compressive Strength in Concrete.

EasyChair Preprint 8002

Abstract

 As we all know that concrete is used everywhere like buildings, roads, etc. We design the concrete according to the need for concrete and the properties like compressive strength, durability, fire resistance, etc are different for buildings and roads. To enhance the properties of concrete we try to use the cheapest material that is easily available nearby the construction sites. There are some reactions (endothermic and exothermic) takes places when the concrete is placed. Temperature is one of that due to this when concrete is introduced into the environment so temperature affects it very badly as cracks occur in concrete, loses compressive strength, bleeding of concrete, etc. When the concrete is introduced into the environment due to endothermic reactions like thermal properties means they absorb heat from the environment that’s why inside the building temperature is high so to control this so much research is going on.

In this research paper, we are going to use the paraffin wax as Phase Change Material (PCM) which is replaced by cement, and waste iron ore tailing as replaced with sand, in our experiments and will observe the thermal properties and compressive strength of concrete.

Keyphrases: Adiabatic temperature, Concrete, Iron ore tailing, compressive strength, paraffin
