Effective heat capacity method to simulate heat difusion problems with phase change

This paper presents the validation of a numerical model based on the effective heat capacity method to evaluate the heat transfer with melting/solidification of a microencapsulated phase change material (PCM) – Micronal® DS 5001 X – contained in rectangular-sectioned vertical cavities. In this metho...
