Abstract:The effects of embedding fixed and movable metal foams in composite PCMs on the transient performance were studied with pulsed heat loads experimentally under various powers and different cell sizes. Similar conclusions could be drawn both from the experimental and numerical results. It was shown that when fixed metal foams were solely adopted, the heat storage system performance could be enhanced by ∼24.6% by increasing the number of metal foams by three times at the heat flux of 56.1 W/cm2 and 15 ppi.
