Design and experimental investigation of a novel thermal energy storage unit with phase change material
A novel design of a shell-and-tube thermal energy storage unit with phase change material was proposed in the study. The layouts of highly conductive fins and phase change material (PCM) in the energy storage unit were optimized through the topology optimization method. The optimal choice of volume...
