Fin geometry optimization for enhanced PCM solidification in solar cooking thermal storage system: Numerical simulation and experimental validation

This study investigates the enhancement of heat transfer in phase change materials (PCMs) for solar cooking applications by optimizing fin dimensions to address the low thermal conductivity of PCM during the discharging process. A numerical and experimental analysis was conducted to evaluate the imp...
