RISLatent Thermal Storage Unit Using Form-Stable High Density Polyethylene; Part I: Performance of the Storage Unit
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A latent thermal storage unit of 30 kWh using form-stable high density polyethylene (HDPE) rods has been developed mainly for solar thermal applications, and heat transfer experiments have been ...
An Investigation Into the Performance of Two Inlet Nozzles for Flow Measurement
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The discharge coefficients for two inlet nozzles with different contraction shapes were studied experimentally together with the behavior of the boundary layer on the nozzle wall. For the inlet ...
Charge and Discharge Characteristics of a Direct Contact Latent Thermal Energy Storage Unit Using Form-Stable High-Density Polyethylene
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For solar thermal energy utilization in relatively low temperatures, a lab-scale direct contact, latent thermal energy storage unit using a form-stable high-density polyethylene (HDPE) was developed. ...
Latent Thermal Storage Unit Using Form-Stable High Density Polyethylene; Part II: Numerical Analysis of Heat Transfer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Heat transfer in the latent thermal storage unit using form-stable high density polyethylene rods has been numerically analyzed. The analysis is based on simple explicit one-dimensional finite ...
