Metallic nanowires are widely used in energy conversion and storage, especially in the thermal management area, because of their high specific surface area, rich active sites, and high thermal conductivity. Metallic nanowires, such as copper or silver nanowires, are extensively applied to prepare the next-generation thermal

Sensible heat storage (SHS) involves heating a solid or liquid to store thermal energy, considering specific heat and temperature variations during phase change processes.
