Abstract:
In this paper the melting heat transfer process of n-octadecane when confined in a cylinder-cubic cavity under the influence of an electric field is experimentally investigated. n-octadecane is a typical organic phase change material (PCM) and possesses a well-defined melting point. The cylinder is subject to the simultaneous actions of electric potential and heating, while the bottom wall or the four sidewalls of cavity are grounded. The effects of the voltages magnitude and polarity on the solid–liquid phase change heat transfer performance are studied.
