Performance enhancement of nano PCM solidification in a hexagonal storage unit with innovative fin shapes dealing with time-dependent boundary conditions
The effect of innovative branching fins and nanoparticles as direct and indirect heat transfer augmentation methods on the solidification of a PCM within a hexagonal storage unit was numerically investigated in this research. A time-dependent boundary condition of the third kind is applied to the co...
