Latent heat thermal energy storage systems allow storing large amounts of energy in relatively small volumes. Phase change materials (PCMs) are used as a latent heat storage medium. However, low thermal conductivity of most PCMs results in long melting (charging) and solidification (discharging) processes. This study focuses on the PCM melting process in a fin-and-tube type copper heat exchanger. The aim of this study is to define analytically natural convection heat transfer coefficient and compare the results with experimental data. The study shows how the local heat transfer coefficient changes in different areas of the heat exchanger and how it is affected by the choice of characteristic length and boundary conditions. It has been determined that applying the calculation method of the natural convection occurring in the channel leads to results that are closer to the experiment. Using this method, the average values of the heat transfer coefficient (have) during the entire charging process was obtained 68 W/m2K, compared to the experimental result have = 61 W/m2K. This is beneficial in the predesign stage of PCM-based thermal energy storage units.

According to the view of heat transfer, the process of the fluid flow with high temperature and high speed over a flat plate may be considered as the heat transfer process within a compressible thermal boundary layer. Based on the numerical results of thermal isolation assumption, combining the temperature comparison with modification method, a coupled method of convection heat transfer coefficient with temperature field of the plate is established, and the characteristics of the thermal response for the flat plate is dominated. Take some ribbed plates as instances, the convection heat transfer coefficient and temperature field of the plate are simulated through the provided coupled method. The results show that, not only the position and materials of the plate influence the convection heat transfer coefficient, but also the time.

Compact heat exchanger with gas as a heat exchange medium is widely used in power plants, automotive, air conditioning, and others. However, the gas has a low thermal conductivity resulting in high thermal resistance causing a low rate of heat transfer. Therefore an improvement to the convection heat transfer coefficient is necessary. One way to enhance the convection heat transfer coefficient is to use a longitudinal vortex generator. However, the increase in convection heat transfer coefficient is followed by an increase in pressure drop. Therefore, this work aims to improve the convection heat transfer coefficient with a low pressure drop. To achieve this goal, experiments were carried out by perforating a longitudinal vortex generator with a diameter of 5 mm with variations in holes number one, two and three. Two types of longitudinal vortex generators are compared. The experimental results show that the convection heat transfer coefficient for the case of perforated concave delta winglet vortex generator is only decreased by 1% from that without a hole, while the pressure drop is decreased by 11.6%.
