Summary

A THREE-DIMENSIONAL NUMERICAL ANALYSIS, IN WHICH THE AXIAL VARIATIONS OF THE TEMPERATURE OF A HEAT EXCHANGER FLUID AND A SOLIDIFICATION LAYER ARE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION, IS MADE TO OBTAIN DETAILED INFORMATION ON THE HEAT TRANSFER CHARACTERISTICS OF A LATENT HEAT STORAGE UNIT WITH A FINNED TUBE. THE CALCULATED RESULTS OF THE TIMEWISE VARIATIONS OF THE HEAT FLUX AND THE SOLIDIFICATION FRACTION ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH PRIOR EXPERIMENTAL DATA, SO THAT THE VALIDITY OF THE PROPOSED NUMERICAL METHOD IS VERIFIED.
