Abstract
Abstract Sodium acetate trihydrate and graphite powdermixtures have been evaluated toinvestigate the influence of the graphite powder on the stability of supercooling. A sodium acetate and water mixturemixed with graphite powder was successfully supercooled at ambient indoor temperatures for five months. The graphite powder was stabilized using carboxymetyl cellulose and successfully tested in heating and supercooling cycles with no loss of performance. Thermal conductivity enhancing properties of graphite powder was shown in samples. Since the experiments were conducted in small scale, at 200 g per sample, large scale experiments are required to validate graphite as a thermo conductivity enhancing agent, suitable for use in seasonal heat storage applications utilizing SAT.
