Numerical investigation on melting and energy storage density enhancement of phase change material in a horizontal cylindrical container

Abstract: Summary Thermal energy storage (TES) plays a significant role in storing heat energy during the availability of a source. The phase change material (PCM) storage density is high, but its meager thermal conductivity leads to ineffective heat transfer. This mathematical modeling work simulates two different heat transfer tube (HTT) arrangements in a horizontal cylindrical container to melt the PCM using the enthalpy‐porosity method. Case‐1 with a single HTT at the centroidal axis and Case‐2 with multiple tubes s… Show more
