摘要
Using phase change materials (PCM) as thermal energy storage material in metal hydride reactor bed is an effective method to store the heat emitted during hydrogen charging and retrieving it later during discharging. The present work examines the effect of a PCM on the behaviour of the metal hydride in the reactor bed. A two-dimensional model was developed to describe the mass and heat transfer inside the metal hydride and the PCM as well as the interaction between them. The results were compared with other numerical simulation and experimental data. In the simulations, thermal conductivity and the latent heat were varied in order to evaluate the effect of these parameters on the kinetics of absorption, desorption and melting of the phase change material.
