Validation of a mathematical model for encapsulated phase change material flat slabs for cooling applications

TL;DR: In this article, a one-dimensional liquid-based model for a flat slab phase change thermal storage unit was developed, which allows varying wall temperatures along the direction of flow and integrates a convective boundary layer using a previously developed algorithm, which is employed to iteratively calculate the liquid fraction and the temperature of each phase change material (PCM) node.

The Turbulent Boundary Layer

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the effect of roughness on boundary layer characteristics and showed that the wall is aerodynamically smooth for a turbulent boundary layer if the roughness elements are so small as to be buried in the laminar sublayer.
