Numerical investigation of phase change materials thermal capacitor for pipe flow
This study addresses the performance of phase change material as thermal capacitor. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model is developed to take into account the conjugate heat transfer between water as the heat transfer fluid (HTF) and PCM as thermal capacitor. A pulsating inlet temperature with...
