Abstract:Thermal energy storage performance of a new type of PCM heat exchange tube was researched, in which its main body was based on the traditional structure of a double-tube exchanger and was full of PCM (calcium chloride hexahydrate) in the annular area between the inner tube and the outer tube. The hot air at the temperature of 40°C was chosen as a fluid medium, and the temperature measurements of the test points were made at the inlet and the outlet of this new type of PCM heat exchange tube. The experimental r… 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.
