Enhancing the Power Performance of Latent Heat Thermal Energy Storage Systems: The Adoption of Passive, Fractal Supports
We employ a three-phase thermal lattice Boltzmann model (LBM) to investigate the power performance of latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) systems based on the exploitation of phase change materials (PCMs). Different passive thermal supports are considered to increase the melting rate, includi...
