Abstract Nanoliquid impingement heat transfer with phase change material (PCM) installed radial system is considered. Study is performed by using finite element method for various values of Reynolds numbers (100 ≤ Re ≤ 300), height of PCM (0.25H ≤ hpcm = 0.7H ≤ 0.75H) and plate spacing (0.15H ≤ hpcm = 0.7H ≤ 0.40H). Different configurations with using water, nanoliquid and nanoliquid+PCM are compared in terms of heat transfer improvement. Thermal performance is improved by using PCM while best performance is achieved with nanoliquid and PCM installed configuration. At Re=100 and Re=300, heat transfer improvements of 26% and 25.5% are achieved with nanoliquid+PCM system as compared to water without PCM. Height of the PCM layer also influences the heat transfer dynamic behavior while there is 12.6% variation in the spatial average heat transfer of the target surface with the lowest and highest PCM height while discharging time increases by about 76.5%. As the spacing between the plates decreases, average heat transfer rises and there is 38% variation.

It is well known that attaching fins on the tubes surfaces can enhance the heat transfer into and out from the phase change materials (PCMs). This paper presents the results of an experimental study on the thermal characteristics of finned coil latent heat storage unit (LHSU) using paraffin as the phase change material (PCM). The paraffin LHSU is a rectangular cube consists of continuous horizontal multibended tubes attached vertical fins at the pitches of 2.5, 5.0, and 7.5 mm that creates the heat transfer surface. The shell side along with the space around the tubes and fins is filled with the material RT54 allocated to store energy of water, which flows inside the tubes as heat transfer fluid (HTF). The measurement is carried out under four different water flow rates: 1.01, 1.30, 1.50, and 1.70 L/min in the charging and discharging process, respectively. The temperature of paraffin and water, charging and discharging wattage, and heat transfer coefficient are plotted in relation to the working time and water flow rate.
