Heat transfer characteristics of the latent heat thermal energy storage capsule
Kozo Katayama,Akio Saito,Yoshio Utaka,Akihiro Saito,Hideo Matsui,Hiromichi Maekawa,A.Z.A. Saifullah +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the characteristic variation of the rate of heat transfer to and from a latent heat thermal energy storage capsule was investigated analytically and experimentally, using a horizontal cylindrical capsule filled with naphthalene as the phase change material.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the Contact Heat Transfer with Melting : 2nd report: Analytical Study
TL;DR: In this paper, the melting phenomena of a solid, pressed on a surface with the temperature higher than the melting point, were analyzed and calculated numerically The analytical results concerning non-dimensional heat flux agreed well with experimental results for water and octadecane shown in the former report.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the Contact Heat Transfer with Melting : 1st Report: Experimental Study
TL;DR: In this paper, the phase change process of a melting solid pressed on a hot heat transfer surface was investigated experimentally, as a basic research of the heat storage process in a latent heat TES (thermal energy storage) capsule.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Study on Frost Formation : The Process of Frost Formation involving the Phenomena of Water Permeation and Freezing
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the process in the frost layer full growth period, which is characterized by the phenomena of water permeation and freezing in the frozen layer, and showed experimentally that this process could be classified largely into two frost formation patterns, depending on the diffusion rate of water vapour.
Journal ArticleDOI
Basic research on the latent heat thermal energy storage utilizing the contact melting phenomena
TL;DR: In this article, a latent heat thermal energy storage capsule, having a horizontal heat transfer surface at the bottom and storing the energy by contact melting, is prepared, and the time-dependency of the storage heat flux is measured, using n-octadecane as the phase change material.
