TRNSYS Type 842: Model for the transient simulation of bulk PCM tanks with immersed fin and tube heat exchanger (Version 2.0)
Beschreibung
The simulation model Type 842 was developed at the Institute of Thermal Engineering, Graz University of Technology, within a national research project (2006). The model enables the detailed simulation of PCM (phase change material) tanks with an immersed fin and tube heat exchanger.
The storage is assumed to be of rectangular shape and charged/discharged via an integrated fin and tube heat exchanger. Heat transfer (conduction) within the PCM is only considered in the direction of the tubes, thus the model is only suitable for heat exchangers with small distances between the tubes (see documentation).
