Effect of Y-shaped fins on the performance of shell-and-tube thermal energy storage unit
Phase change materials (PCMs) are well known for their inherent poor thermal characteristics, which consequently results in limited thermal efficiency for thermal energy storage systems (TESS). The current work numerically attempts to improve the thermal efficiency of TESS by employing Y-shaped fins...
