Abstract:The encapsulation technique is one way to use latent heat storage material in a solar water heater tank. In this technique, several capsules may be arranged in the tank. In this study, the capsules were installed along the cross-section of the tank. There has been no discussion of which part of the capsule position has optimal heat energy with a capsule arrangement. Proper placement of the capsule arrangement can result in optimal thermal energy storage in the tank. This study aimed to investigate the effectiv… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
