Influence of Natural Convection and Volume Change on Numerical Simulation of Phase Change Materials for Latent Heat Storage
For the numerical simulation of a heat storage based on phase change materials (PCMs) an <i>enhanced</i> <i>model</i> is presented, considering the physical effects of convection flow in the liquid phase as well as the volume change during phase change. A modified heat capaci...
