Abstract
There is a greater focus on solar energy since the food processing business requires a lot of thermal energy to remove moisture from agricultural products. This study thoroughly explains how to choose Phase Change Materials (PCMs) within a specific temperature range. The best PCM is selected from the Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) procedures based on a few characteristics. Based on the results of the MCDM method, the eutectic of paraffin and palmitic acid is chosen. PCM is bound, and FSPCM is formed using clay. The method of preparation of Clay-based FSPCM is described in detail. The amount of clay materials and different clay percentage combinations are chosen from the leakage experiment. Kaolin has the least amount of leakage out of all the clay materials tested. Kaolin-based FSPCM Exhibits improvement in thermal conductivity compared to Pure PCM.
