ISBN: 9781560321255 出版年：2018 页码：338 Alexiades, V Routledge

This reference book presents mathematical models of melting and solidification processes thare are key to the effective performance of latent heat thermal energy storage systems (LHTES), utilized in a wide range of heat transfer and industrial applications. Especially timely, this topic has spurred a growth in research into LHTES applications in energy conservation and utilization, space station power systems, and thermal protection of electronic equipment in hostile environments. Further, interest in mathematical modeling has increased dramatically with the spread of high-powered computers used in most industrial and academic settings. In two sections, the book first describes modeling of phase change processes and then describes applications for LHTES.
