.... These concentrated solar receivers integrated with a metal matrix-based phase change material (PCM) thermal storage medium provide the compounding effect of an efficient heat exchanger while also integrating thermal storage within the receiver. Detailed numerical modeling of such devices with enthalpy–porosity-based...

...Petter Miltén; Isak Johnsson; Anders Lundbladh; Carlos Xisto The paper introduces a novel method for generalized heat exchanger (HX) design and evaluation, freeing the process from predefined geometries. It aims to facilitate early-stage conceptual exploration, allowing the designer to make...

... heat exchanger (EGR cooler) with six surrogate tubes, was designed to control flow variables independently. The engine was operated at 2150 rpm, 203 Nm and 1400 rpm, 81 Nm, representing medium and low load conditions, respectively, and the coolant to the heat exchanger was circulated at 85 °C and 40 °C...
