Close-contact melting and natural convection in unconstrained melting: A parametric study
Baghaei Oskouei, Seyedmohsen; Li, Zi-Rui; Bayer, Özgür; Fan, Li-Wu (2024-01-01)
Close-contact melting (CCM) is a phenomenon that can be achieved in latent thermal energy storage (LTES) units where the falling of solid PCM is realized. On the other hand, natural convection (NC) plays an important role ...
On the design of a solar heat storage tank at 120°C
Christodoulaki, Rosie; Akmandor, İbrahim Sinan; Bayer, Özgür; Desideri, Umberto; Ferrari, Lorenzo; Frate, Guido Francesco; Drosou, Vassiliki (2023-09-01)
Experimental and numerical investigation of melting and solidification enhancement using Fibonacci-inspired fins in a latent thermal energy storage unit
Baghaei Oskouei, Seyedmohsen; Bayer, Özgür (2023-08-15)
The major challenge with phase change materials (PCMs) is their low thermal conductivity, eventuating long melting (charging) and solidification (discharging) times in latent thermal energy storage (LTES) units. Using exte...
Effect of bypassing the heat transfer fluid on charging in a latent thermal energy storage unit
Baghaei Oskouei, Seyedmohsen; Bayer, Özgür (2023-06-01)
Horizontal latent thermal energy storage (LTES) systems that use phase change materials (PCMs) are popular and effective methods of alleviating the intermittency of renewable energy sources. The main issue of PCMs is their...
Evaluation of magnetocaloric behavior and refrigeration performance of Gd3Co10Al87 nanostructured thin film alloy with multiple Curie temperatures
Bayer, Özgür; Baghaei Oskouei, Seyedmohsen; PAT, SUAT (2023-04-01)
The Gd3Co10Al87 thin film was investigated since it contains a higher atomic rate of aluminum, an inexpensive, recyclable, and abundant material. A thermionic vacuum arc system deposited Gd3Co10Al87 nanostructured thin fil...
A novel cascade latent heat thermal energy storage system consisting of erythritol and paraffin wax for deep recovery of medium-temperature industrial waste heat
Yang, Sheng; Shao, Xue-Feng; Luo, Jia-Hao; Baghaei Oskouei, Seyedmohsen; Bayer, Özgür; Fan, Li-Wu (2023-02-15)
Recovering medium-temperature (e.g., 150–180 °C) industrial waste heat through latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) can effectively attenuate the consumption of fossil fuels. However, the LHTES system containing a si...
Investigation of flow and heat transfer behavior of integrated pin fin-aluminum foam heat sink
ŞAHİN, Yiğit Serkan; TOPRAK, Beytullah İsmet; SOLMAZ, İsmail; Bayer, Özgür (2023-01-01)
With the rapid development in the electronics industry, the thermal management of high power density elec-tronic products (HPDEPs) has become very important and requires innovative heat removal technologies. In this study,...
Eccentricity in a Horizontal Latent Thermal Energy Storage Unit: Effects of Inner Tube Geometry
Bayer, Özgür (2022-12-01)
The intermittency of solar energy has resulted in a urge to implement a buffer for providing constant and reliable energy in different sectors. Latent thermal energy storage solutions that use phase change materials have b...
Enhanced power density during energy charging of a shell-and-tube thermal storage unit: Comparison between the inclusion of metal fins and foams
Li, Zi-Rui; Baghaei Oskouei, Seyedmohsen; Fu, Guo-Tao; Bayer, Özgür; Fan, Li-Wu (2022-11-25)
Introducing metal fins or foams can both enhance the performance of shell-and-tube phase change thermal energy storage (TES) devices, but the heat transfer mechanisms are different, i.e., heat transfer through a micro-liqu...
Experimental and numerical investigation of a novel pipe-network mini channel heatsink
TOPRAK, Beytullah İsmet; Baghaei Oskouei, Seyedmohsen; Bayer, Özgür; SOLMAZ, İsmail (2022-07-01)
© 2022 Elsevier LtdThermal management of electronics is an essential issue since it affects the components' function and longevity. In this study, a novel mini channel heatsink comprised of 3D networks of cylinders with a ...
