Thermal Performance of a PCM-Based Thermal Energy Storage with Metal Foam Enhancement
The energy transport inside a phase change material (PCM) based thermal energy storage system using metal foam as an enhancement technique is investigated numerically. The paraffin is used as the PCM and water as the heat transfer fluid (HTF). The transient heat transfer during the charging and disc...
