“…Lattice Boltzmann method is a powerful mesoscopic method for sundry shapes in different subjects such as nanofluid, ferrofluid, MHD flow, porous medium, turbulent flow, melting and so on [35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48]. Nevertheless, it does not have the huge success in non-Newtonian fluid especially on energy equations.…”

“…With some appropriate assumptions as presented in Section 2, the thermal performance of PCMs with nanoparticles could be modeled using enthalpy-based LBM. Jourabian et al studied the convective melting process of Cunanoparticle enhanced water-ice in a cylindrical-horizontal annulus [158,159]. It was demonstrated that the melting rate of NEPCM is accelerated due to the improvement of thermal conductivity and the reduced latent heat.…”

Phase change materials (PCMs) have several advantages for thermal energy storage due to their high energy storage density and nearly constant working temperature. Unfortunately, the low thermal conductivity of PCM impedes its efficiency of charging and discharging processes. To solve this issue, different techniques are developed to enhance the heat transfer capability of PCMs. In this chapter, the common approaches, which include the use of extended internal fins, porous matrices or metal foams, high thermal conductivity nanoparticles, and heat pipes for enhancing the heat transfer rate of PCMs, are presented in details. In addition, mathematical modeling plays a significant role in clarifying the PCM melting and solidification mechanisms and directs the experiments. As a powerful mesoscopic numerical approach, the enthalpy-based lattice Boltzmann method (LBM), which is robust to investigate the solid-liquid phase change phenomenon without iteration of source terms, is also introduced in this chapter, and its applications in latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) unit using different heat transfer enhancement techniques are discussed.

“…The combination of these factors determines the heat transfer modes inside the material. Numerical investigations of melting process of ice with Cu nanoparticles inside in the thermal storage unit were carried out by Jourabian et al [9,10]. The domains under consideration represent a twodimensional cross-section model of heated tube with constant temperature inside round [9] or square [10] shells.…”

“…Numerical investigations of melting process of ice with Cu nanoparticles inside in the thermal storage unit were carried out by Jourabian et al [9,10]. The domains under consideration represent a twodimensional cross-section model of heated tube with constant temperature inside round [9] or square [10] shells. It was shown that a growth of particle volumetric concentration reduces the influence of heater position, due to a raise of viscosity and as a consequence due to the weakening of convection heat transfer.…”

Present study is devoted to numerical simulation of heat and mass transfer inside a cooper profile filled with paraffin enhanced with Al2O3 nanoparticles. This profile is heated by the heat-generating element of constant volumetric heat flux. Two-dimensional approximation of melting process is described by the Navier-Stokes equations in non-dimensional variables such as stream function, vorticity and temperature. The enthalpy formulation has been used for description of the heat transfer. The influence of volume fraction of nanoparticles and intensity of heat generation on melting process and natural convection in liquid phase has been studied.
