Numerical simulation, ANN training and predictive analysis of phase change material with 3D printing lattice structures
May 2024 • Suping Shen
This study simulated and analysed the performance of phase change material with three lattice structures, i.e., simple cubic, body-centered cubic, and face-centered cubic, at various porosities and heat fluxes. Three parameters are analysed, including the maximum temperature of the heated wall, melting and solidifying times of PCM. The findings suggest that as the porosity rises, the maximum temperature decreases, while the increase in heat flux leads to a higher maximum temperature. Both the melting and solidifyi…
