Melting assessment on the angled fin design for a novel latent heat thermal energy storage tube

TL;DR: In this article , a novel design on angled fins was proposed to improve the thermal transport for phase change materials (PCMs) in a shell-and-tube thermal storage unit, and a numerical model was built and verified by comparing with experimental observations on the melting front evolution and temperature history.
