Abstract |
The present experiments have been performed for obtaining the melting heat transfer characteristics of micro-encapsulated solid-liquid phase-change material and water mixture slurry flow in a circular tube heated with constant wall heat flux. The phase change material having a low melting point was selected for a domestic cooling system in the present study. The governing parameters were found to be latent heat material concentration, heat flux, and the slurry velocity. The experimental results revealed that the increase of tube wall temperature of latent microcapsule slurry was lower than that of water caused by the heat absorption of fusion. |
