摘要
Solar energy is clean and sustainable but intermittent in nature. Efficient storage of solar thermal energy is critical for its wider applications. This paper presents design and research on a thermal energy storage unit using phase change material (PCM). Aprototype of PCM heat exchanger with a helical coil tube was designed and fabricated for solar thermal energy storage, and was tested on a solar thermal experimental apparatus. This paper discusses the design concepts, selection of materials, as well as heat transfer analysis with the CFD tool Ansys Fluent.
