Analysis and modelling of a phase change storage system for air conditioning applications
S.M. Vakilaltojjar,Wasim Saman +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a phase change energy storage system consisting of sections of different materials with different melting temperatures is proposed for air conditioning applications, where the phase change materials (PCMs) are placed in thin flat containers and air is passed through gaps between them.
Enhanced heat conduction in phase-change thermal energy storage devices
TL;DR: In this paper, a simplified numerical model based on a quasi-linear, transient, thin fin equation was proposed to predict the fraction of melted phase change materials and the shape of the liquid-solid interface as a function of time with sufficient accuracy for engineering purposes.
