...Jie Cui; Xiaojing Ma; Linjiao Zhao; Wenhao Lu Purpose In this paper, the Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics ( SPH ) method is used to numerically investigate heat transfer during phase change material ( PCM ) melting in a triplex-tube energy storage unit. The study analyzes the combined effects of fin...

...Mengyao Fan; Xiaojing Ma; Lin Li; Xinpeng Xiao; Can Cheng Purpose In this paper, the complex flow evaporation process of droplet impact on the liquid film in a horizontal falling film evaporator is numerically studied based on smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method. The purpose of this paper...

..., the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) is used based on the kernel function and the time step which takes into consideration to the fluid domain in accordance with the discrete element method (DEM) with resistance function. The interaction between fluid and DPs consists of three parts, which are repulsive...
