Comparative study on heat transfer enhancement of metal foam and fins in a shell-and-tube latent heat thermal energy storage unit
ABSTRACT: Metal foam and fins are two popular structures that are employed to enhance the heat transfer of phase change materials in shell-and-tube heat storage units. However, it remains unclear which structure is better in terms of energy storage performance. In this study, the heat transfer enhan...
