A comprehensive approach combining gradient porous metal foam and the magnetic field to regulate latent heat storage performance

Wenxuan He et al.

Summary: This study proposes a comprehensive regulation method that combines a gradient porous metal structure with a magnetic field to improve the controllability of heat utilization in a latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) system. The effects of magnetic nanoparticle concentration and gradient porosity on heat transfer and thermal energy change during melting and solidification are numerically studied. The results show that the phase change rate increases with nanoparticle concentration and the positive magnetic field further accelerates the phase change and heat energy change. The addition of copper foam considerably shortens the phase change time.

Experimental thermal study of solar salt and subcritical pressure water in a shell and tube heat exchanger

Xinyu Dong et al.

Summary: An experiment was conducted to investigate the heat transfer performance of solar salt and supercooled water, vapor-liquid two-phase, superheated steam in a shell and tube heat exchanger. The experimental data was obtained for different mass fluxes and inlet temperatures. The results showed that the water dryness and solar salt temperature significantly affected the solar salt heat transfer coefficient. Heat transfer correlations were proposed based on the experimental data, with a maximum deviation of +/- 10% and -20% for single phase water and vapor-liquid two-phase, respectively.

Latent heat thermal energy storage in a shell-tube: A wavy partial layer of metal foam over tubes

Mehdi Ghalambaz et al.

Summary: This study modeled the melting thermal energy storage and heat transfer of paraffin wax in the presence of wavy copper foam. The effects of phase-change energy and natural convection were also considered. The simulation results showed that a higher wavenumber and a lower wave magnitude of the foam layer led to shorter charging time and better energy storage power. The shortest melting time was achieved with a flat foam layer.

LSTM-BP neural network analysis on solid-liquid phase change in a multi-channel thermal storage tank

Tian Xiao et al.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of inlet velocity and temperature of the heat transfer fluid (HTF) on the phase transition process of phase change material (PCM) in a latent heat thermal storage (LHTS) system with metal foam. A novel multi-channel LHTS tank is designed and a three-dimensional numerical model is established to describe the transient melting process. Additionally, a new LSTM-BP neural network is developed to predict the behavior of the PCM based on HTF inlet velocity, temperature, and time. The results demonstrate that increasing the HTF velocity or temperature reduces the melting time of the PCM. The machine learning model provides new adaptive approaches for thermal storage design and operation.

Numerical simulation on thermal behavior of partially filled metal foam composite phase change materials

Qifan Ying et al.

Summary: This study designed LHTES units with metal foam filled at the top or the bottom with different height ratios, and studied the melting heat transfer characteristic through numerical simulations. Results show that the flow rate of liquid paraffin in the bottom filling configuration is significantly higher than that in the top filling configuration, which is more conducive to natural convection and heat transfer enhancement. However, the top filling configuration performs better in the heat storage capacity. On this basis, a new criterion called the comprehensive strengthening goodness factor (CSGF) was proposed for evaluating the heat transfer performance of LHTES system.

Melting and solidification of phase change materials in metal foam filled thermal energy storage tank: Evaluation on gradient in pore structure

Gang Liu et al.

Summary: This research proposes a novel energy storage tank filled with phase change materials embedded in graded metal foams to improve melting/solidification efficiency. Experimental and numerical results demonstrate that gradient design in pore density does not affect the melting and solidification procedures, while graded porosity notably helps the melting and solidification processes. The optimal gradient in porosity reduces the overall cycle of melting and solidification time by 10.9% compared to the uniform filling pattern.

Investigation of the effect of thermal resistance on the performance of phase change materials

Summary: The study investigated the thermal performance of a latent heat energy storage system using metal inserts as a heat transfer enhancement material, showing that storage performance decreases with increasing gap size and convection can be neglected when periodic structures are used. Tight fitting metal inserts in storage improve performance by about three times compared to a 1 mm thermal resistance gap, and using a thermally adhesive glue to eliminate the gap results in a 10% improvement in heat transfer enhancement during charge/discharge.
