Numerical Investigation of Energy Storage in Packed Bed of Cylindrical Capsules of PCM

A theoretical study of storage thermal energy using capsulated cylinders filled with phase change material PCM is performed. These cylinders are arranged in-line in the direction of heat transfer fluid. The energy equations of fluid (water) and PCM capsules are solved numerically using finite volume...
