Title: Numerical simulation of fluid flow and heat transfer in a phase change thermal energy storage.
Authors: Kousksou, T.1, Bedecarrats, J-P.1, Strub, F.1, Castaing-Lasvignottes, J.1
Source: International Journal of Energy Technology & Policy. 2008, Vol. 6 Issue 1/2, p1-1. 1p. 1 Black and White Photograph.
Subject Terms: *Heat storage, Solid-liquid interfaces, Natural heat convection, Supercooling, Porous materials, Simulation methods & models, Crystallization, Fluid dynamics
Abstract: The article presents a study which aims to evaluate an industrial process of energy storage which consists in the use of a cylindrical tank filled with encapsulated Phase Change Materials (PCM). It focuses on the delay of the crystallisation or the supercooling phenomenon of PCM. A two-dimensional (2D) porous-medium model for cold storage with coolant flowing was used in the analysis of the process.
