Phase change material solidification in a finned cylindrical shell thermal energy storage: An approximate analytical approach

Results are reported of an investigation of the solidification of a phase change material (PCM) in a cylindrical shell thermal energy storage with radial internal fins. An approximate analytical solution is presented for two cases. In case 1, the inner wall is kept at a constant temperature and,...
