Current results of an experimental study of increasing phase change material thermal diffusivity by means of solid fillers are reported. Aluminum honeycomb appears to offer the best improvement of any of the fillers investigated to date. Details of the experimental method developed in the present study for rapidly determining thermal diffusivities with a precision of about 10 percent are also reported. Further concepts regarding phase change material thermal diffusivity enhancement and of phase change material operation are discussed
