Summary
Considering that the thermal resistance is significant to the thermal performance evaluation of the phase change thermal energy storage (PCTES) unit, a thermal resistance model of the fin-and-tube PCTES unit is established in this work. The model is used to investigate the effects of the structure parameters for the PCTES unit, the thermal conductivity of phase change material (PCM) and the Reynolds number. A comparison for the thermal resistance outside the tube between the PCTES unit filled with composite PCM and the fin-and-tube PCTES unit filled with single PCM is also discussed under the same condition.
