Abstract:Developing a cold thermal energy storage (CTES) technology is one of the most effective methods to solve energy shortage and environmental pollution all over the world. The current study deals with the modelling and simulation of a cold thermal energy storage tank consisting of an polyvinyl chloride pipe (PVC) heat exchanger partially filled with a phase change material (PCM). Water, as the heat transfer fluid (HTF), flows through the inner tubes and the outer one while propylene glycol as the phase change mat… Show more
