... dissipation capacity of batteries, fins are added in the PCM to enhance the heat transfer process. Design/methodology/approach Computational fluid dynamics method is used to study the influence of number of vertical fins and ring fins (i.e. 2, 4, 6 and 8 vertical fins, and 2, 3, 4 and 5 ring fins...

...A.‐R.A. Khaled; I. Alqadi Purpose The purpose of this work is to consider heat transfer inside wall‐rooted‐fins systems. Design/methodology/approach The coupled two‐dimensional heat diffusion equations are nondimensionlaized and solved numerically using an iterative finite volume method...

...Arash Saidi; Bengt Sundén Numerical analysis of the instantaneous flow and heat transfer has been carried out for offset strip fin geometries in self‐sustained oscillatory flow. The analysis is based on the two‐dimensional solution of the governing equations of the fluid flow and heat transfer...

...Z.X. Yuan A numerical study has been conducted for the characteristics of the periodically fully developed turbulent flow and heat transfer in a channel with transverse opposite‐positioned fins. The Reynolds number range is 2 × 10⁴ to 7 × 10⁴. K‐ε model and wall function...

...Antonio Campo A detailed comparative study of the heat transfer augmentation of in‐tube flows accounting for an array of equally‐spaced plate fins attached at the outer surface is undertaken. The aim of the paper is to critically examine the thermal response of this kind of finned tubes to three...

...Tony W.H. Sheu; S.F Tsai A three‐dimensional numerical study was conducted to assess the heat transfer performance of extended fins in a two‐row finned tube heat exchanger. Fins under investigation were plane and slit types. A finite volume discretization method and a SIMPLE‐based solution...

...M. Lacroix; M. Benmadda A numerical study is reported of melting from a horizontal heated wall with vertically oriented fins embedded in the phase change material. This work is motivated by the need to improve the heat transfer rates during the charge and discharge cycles in latent heat thermal...

... are then obtainable with automatic accuracy, allowing for the establishment of benchmark results and for the validation of approximate solutions. Convergence rates are illustrated for longitudinal fins with trapezoidal and parabolic profiles, and for different values of the governing parameters, Biot number...
