Maximizing the energy storage performance of phase change thermal storage systems
(ACTA Press, 2009-03)Phase Change Material (PCM) is considered as a good Thermal Energy Storage (TES) material as it can provide much higher energy storage densities compared to conventional sensible thermal storage materials. An extensive ... -
Optimisation of a phase change thermal storage system
(World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology (WASET), 2009-10)PCMs have always been viewed as a suitable candidate for off peak thermal storage, particularly for refrigeration systems, due to the high latent energy densities of these materials. However, due to the need to have them ... -
Investigation of conducting pins in sphere filled with phase change material for enhancing heat transfer in thermal energy storage
(Trans Tech Publications., 2012)The utilisation of phase change material (PCM) for thermal energy storage (TES) can significantly enhance the energy savings achievable with renewable thermal systems. Sphere based packed bed systems have been used as TES ... -
Effectiveness–NTU correlation for low temperature PCM encapsulated in spheres
(Elsevier Ltd., 2012-05)The applicability of the effectiveness–NTU method for characterising a PCM thermal energy storage system was experimentally investigated. The system consisted of PCM encapsulated in spheres with a liquid heat transfer ... -
Optimising PCM thermal storage systems for maximum energy storage effectiveness
(Elsevier Ltd., 2012-09)A new performance parameter for PCM thermal storage systems, the energy storage effectiveness, is defined. This parameter can be used to optimise the design of any PCM thermal storage system to maximise the use of the ... -
Experimental investigation of PCM spheres in thermal energy storage system
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)This paper presents the experimental result of a small scale packed bed of random spheres with encapsulated PCM being charged and discharged. A vapor compression refrigerator and heated room with fan heater were used to ... -
Experimental studies of a Ranque-Hilsch vortex tube
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)Vortex tube is a device that separates a compressed flow of gas into two streams simultaneously, one giving kinetic energy to the other, resulting one hotter than the inlet temperature and one lower, without having any ... -
Modelling of multi-axial ultimate elastic wall stress (UEWS) test for glass fibre reinforced epoxy (GRE) composite pipes
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)This paper describes the modeling of multiaxial ultimate elastic wall stress (UEWS) at room temperature for glass fibre reinforced epoxy (GRE) composite pipes. The model developed, predicts the stress-strain response caused ... -
General lifetime damage model for glass fibre reinforced epoxy (GRE) composite pipes under multiaxial loading
