Solidification of Cascaded PCM Storages Embedded Within a Channel Under Various Forced Air Flow Strategies

In recent years, latent heat storage systems have been received considerable attention as they can provide high thermal storage capacity and optimize energy consumption. Cascaded phase change materials (PCMs) are a significant strategy to manage the gap between energy supply and demand, especially in renewable thermal energy applications. This work is devoted to investigate the unsteady freezing process of cascaded latent heat thermal energy...
