International Journal of Environmental Science and Development, Vol. 2, No. 6, December 2011 Fig. 7. Temperature Contours of TESD containing Sodium acetate tri-hydrate C. Results obtained for Naphthalene The temperature contours in Fig. 8 and Fig. 9 clearly show the decrease in temperature of the coolant water from 343 K to 327 K. The PCM exhibits a temperature change of almost 20 K. as observed from the above graphical images obtained through fluent analysis. Fig. 8. Temperature Contours of Naphthalene Fig. 9. Temperature Contours of TESD containing Naphthalene VII. CONCLUSION Successful analysis of the transient heat transfer characteristics of phase change material has been studied. From the temperature profiles we observe that sodium acetate tri-hydrate gives us the most promising results when compared to paraffin wax and naphthalene. Coolant water loses maximum heat to sodium acetate tri-hydrate which is obtained as drop in temperature from 343 K to 324K (in the coolant water) from the graphs obtained. It is observed that the heat absorption in the PCM material decreases gradually as we travel from the inlet of coolant water towards the outlet of coolant water. The phase change near wall is noted by the formation of a flat plateau regime on temperature vs. time plot. Different contours were generated by using Fluent. The temperatures profiles have been estimated. REFERENCES [1] Gu, Z., Liu, H., Li, Y. Thermal energy recovery heat recovery system calculation and phase change material development.
