Enhancing the melting rate of RT42 paraffin wax in a square cell with varied copper fin lengths and orientations: A numerical simulation
Latent thermal energy storage units are especially preferred in renewable thermal energy systems for their significant capacity to store heat. Nevertheless, the phase change materials in these units have low thermal conductivity, prompting researchers to tackle this problem using several methods, su...
