Thermal behavior of latent thermal energy storage unit using two phase change materials: Effects of HTF inlet temperature

This work presents a numerical study of the thermal behavior of shell-and-tube latent thermal energy storage (LTES) unit using two phase change materials (PCMs). The heat transfer fluid (HTF) flow through the inner tube and transfer the heat to PCMs. First, a mathematical model is developed based on...
