Numerical investigation of the effect of an air layer on the melting process of phase change materials
Abstract Designing more effective thermal energy storage devices can result from understanding how air layers impact the melting process. The total efficiency of these systems can be improved by optimizing the melting process of the phase change materials (PCMs), which are utilised to store and rele...
