Heat Transfer in Phase Change Materials with Multiple Fin Insertion
Paolo Proia, Mauro Sbragaglia, Giacomo Falcucci
We leverage 3D numerical simulations to study phase change materials (PCMs) cells under the effect of buoyancy forces. The solid PCM is heated from a source boundary, triggering me…

Heat transfer modulation in Phase Change Materials via fin insertion
Paolo Proia, Mauro Sbragaglia, Giacomo Falcucci
We leverage a large set of numerical simulations to study optimized geometrical configurations for Phase Change Materials (PCMs) cells. We consider a PCM cell as a square enclosure…
