摘要
为提高潜热储热单元(latent heat storage unit,LHSU)的储热性能,提出了三种优化换热管结构的新型LHSU,分别为圆台形换热管潜热储热单元、波浪形换热管潜热储热单元和圆台波浪形换热管潜热储热单元(frustum wavy heat transfer tube latent heat storage unit,FW-LHSU).基于数值模拟方法,比较了传统圆柱形换热管潜热储热单元(cylindrical heat transfer tube latent heat storage unit,C-LHSU)和三种新型LHSU的储热性能.此外,针对FW-LHSU研究了换热管壁面倾斜角度对储热性能的影响.结果发现,所提出的三种新型换热管结构均能增强储热性能,其中FW-LHSU储热效果最好,与C-LHSU相比,FW-LHSU的熔化时间缩短了32.64%,储热速率密度提高了48.1%.当增加FW-LHSU的换热管壁面倾斜角度时,其储热性能可进一步提高.当换热管倾斜角度从2°增加到8°时,FW-LHSU的储热时间可缩短37.00%、储热速率密度可提高48.44%.
Abstract
In order to improve the heat storage performance of latent heat storage unit(LHSU),three novel heat transfer tubes of the LHSUs were proposed,including frustum,wavy,and frustum wavy heat transfer tube LHSUs.Based on the numerical simulation,the heat storage performance of the cylindrical heat transfer tube latent heat storage unit(C-LHSU)and the above three novel LHSUs were compared.In addition,the influence of the tilt angle of the heat transfer tube on heat storage performance was studied for the LHSU with the frustum wavy tube(FW-LHSU).The results showed that the three novel tube structures could enhance heat storage performance,and the FW-LHSU had the optimal heat storage performance.Compared with C-LHSU,FW-LHSU had a 32.64%reduction in melting time and a 48.1%enhancement in heat storage density.The heat storage performance of FW-LHSU could be further improved by increasing the tilt angle of the heat transfer tube.When the tilt angle of the heat transfer tube increased from 2° to 8°,the heat storage time of FW-LHSU decreased by 37.00%,and the heat storage density increased by 48.44%,respectively.
