Numerical investigation on PCM melting in triangular cylinders

Numerical investigation on PCM melting in triangular cylinders

A numerical study has been provided to investigate the characteristics of PCM melting in triangular cylinder containers. Commercial paraffin wax has been selected as a PCM and a hot air stream is used as a source of heat energy for the melting process. The flow structure and convective heat transfer...
