Numerical and Experimental Studies on the Heat Transfer Performance of Copper Foam Filled with Paraffin
Abstract: The pore-scale numerical works on the effective thermal conductivity and melting process of copper foam filled with paraffin, and a phase-change material (PCM) with low thermal conductivity, were conducted by utilizing the two-dimensional (2D) hexahedron Calmidi-Mahajan (C-M) model and the...
