Abstract

In this study concept of increasing the heat transfer rate in the Phase Change Material during the charging and discharging has been presented. An experimental investigation has been made to see the effect of the metallic fins inside the PCM on improvement in thermal conductivity. One PCM acetamide is selected for the experimental investigation and their charging characteristics and thermo physical properties are studied by using different configurations of the fins. It is observed during the experimental investigation that there is significant effect of the fin on the charging characteristics, discharging characteristics of the PCM.
