About This Item
Full Description
A deterministic numerical model, based on a quasi-steady-state approach, is developed for an internal melt ice-on-coil thermal storage tank with a built-in spiral coil tubing heat exchanger having a counterflow configuration and quiescent water around the coils. This model is able to simulate both charging and discharging models, taking into account the overlapping phenomenon that occurs due to the superposition of the ice layers during freezing as well as the superposition of the water layers during melting. The developed model accounts for the cooldown of the water earlier during the charging period and the warm-up of the water later during the discharging period. The input parameters include the geometric dimensions of the tank, the secondary fluid temperature and its flow rate entering the tank, the number of segments along the coil, and the time step. The model determines the heat transfer rates, the inventory of the ice, and other output parameters such as temperatures and ice/water radius. This model can be used by manufacturers and engineers for design and simulation purposes.
