Performance characteristics of PCM based thermal energy storage system for fluctuating waste heat sources

Faraz Kaiser Malik et al.

Summary: The large temperature fluctuations of industrial waste heat pose a challenge for waste heat recovery systems. The use of Phase Change Material (PCM) can effectively dampen these fluctuations. This study evaluates the performance of a shell and tube latent TES unit using industrial salt as PCM in fluctuating thermal cycles.

Melting performance enhancement of PCM based thermal energy storage system using multiple tubes and modified shell designs

Rehan Qaiser et al.

Summary: Experimental and numerical investigations were conducted for heat transfer enhancement in a horizontal Latent Thermal Energy Storage System using multiple heat transfer tubes and modified shell designs. The results showed that vertical double tube and triple tube V-configuration significantly improve heat transfer rates compared to the Base Case, with a corresponding reduction in complete melting times. Additionally, elliptic and triangular shell design modifications were found to increase heat transfer rates and reduce melting times effectively.

Numerical investigation of natural convection enhancement in latent heat energy storage units with punched-fin and slit-fin

Peng Ding et al.

Summary: The study shows that using punched-fins and slit-fins can enhance the melting rate by reducing the blockage effect. The reduction percentage in total melting time for slit-fin designs remains consistent at different Stephan numbers, with an improvement of approximately 14.0% compared to straight fin designs, while for punched-fin designs, the reduction percentage varies at different Stephan numbers, with a maximum of 10.1%.
