A novel heat transfer enhancement method: Combination of Nano-encapsulated PCM and metal foam

广泛的文献综述和许多文章在这一领域进行了仔细研究。为了求解控制方程，在COMSOL和OPENFOAM软件中分别编制了求解器。对控制方程进行了无量纲化，得到了控制参数。研究了它们对最大传热和最小压降的影响。研究对象为矩形截面的微通道。发现了许多有趣的结果，这就是为什么与所获得的结果有关的摘要被发送到一个国际会议。设计了实验装置，订购并接收了微通道、纳米封装PCM等必要的设备和材料。开始建立实验装置。

A wide literature review was done and many articles in this field was studied carefully. In order to solve the governing equations, two solvers were made in the COMSOL and OPENFOAM software. The governing equations were made dimensionless and the governing parameters were obtained. The effects of them on maximizing the heat transfer and minimization of pressure drop were investigated. The study was done for micro channels with rectangular cross-section. Many interesting results were found, and that’s why an abstract relating to the obtained results was sent to an international conference. An experimental device was designed and necessary equipment and materials such as microchannel, nano-encapsulated PCM etc. were ordered and received. Establishment of the experimental setup was started.
