Thermal improvement of linear Fresnel solar system utilizing Al2O3-water nanofluid and multi-way twisted tape

M. Sheikholeslami et al.

Summary: In this study, the thermal treatment of Linear Fresnel Reflector (LFR) unit was enhanced by the application of multi-way twisted tape (MWTT). Finite volume simulations were used to predict the flow and thermal performance, and SolTrace and ANSYS FLUET were used to extract the distribution of absorb flux. The results showed that the rotation, width, and number of wings of the twisted tape significantly affected the fluid flow and thermal efficiency.

Simulation of solidification process of phase change materials in a heat exchanger using branch-shaped fins

M. Asgari et al.

Summary: The study found that using thinner branch-shaped fins and hybrid Al2O3 - Cu with a volume ratio of 0.04 has a greater impact on the solidification process of phase change materials. Additionally, the use of fins significantly speeds up the solidification process and thinner fins are more effective in increasing heat transfer rate compared to thicker fins. Generally, the simultaneous use of thin branch-shaped fins and nanoparticles with a volume fraction of 0.04 leads to maximum efficiency in the simulation.

Summary: The study found that the presence of internal fins enhances heat transfer performance while maintaining a similar total amount of stored energy compared to the case without fins. Furthermore, changing the fins structures can offer a higher rate of heat transfer and a better energy storage capacity, rather than increasing the number of fins.

Phase change material heat transfer enhancement in latent heat thermal energy storage unit with single fin: Comprehensive effect of position and length

Junting Wu et al.

Summary: This study explored the comprehensive effect of the position and length of a single fin in a latent heat thermal energy storage unit on the melting and solidification of phase-change materials through transient numerical simulations. It was found that increasing the fin length and lowering the fin position simultaneously significantly reduced the total melting time, but resulted in non-uniform temperature distribution during the solidification process. An optimal fin position corresponding to different fin lengths was suggested. Additionally, the disparity between heat storage/release and phase transition was quantitatively discussed.
