摘要： 基于列管式换热器具有传热面积大、结构紧凑、操作弹性大等优点,使其在相变储能领域具有广阔的应用前景。本文建立一种新型列管式相变蓄热器模型,在不考虑自然对流的情况下,利用Fluent软件对相变蓄热器进行二维储热过程的数值模拟。本文主要研究斯蒂芬数、雷诺数、列管排列方式、肋片数以及相变材料的导热系数对熔化过程的影响,并对熔化过程中固液分界面的移动规律进行了分析。模拟结果表明,内肋片强化换热效果明显,特别是对应用低导热系数相变材料[导热系数小于1 W/(m·K)]的列管式蓄热器,相对于无肋片结构,加入肋片（Nfn=2）可缩短熔化时间52.6%。

Abstract: Due to large heat transfer area, compact size and easy handling, cross flow tubular heat exchangers have a potential for a wide range of applications in latent heat energy storage. A two dimensional unsteady-state model is established for this type of heat exchangers contacting phase change materials (PCMs) to study the heat transfer behavior during phase change. Effects of various factors on the charging process are studied, including Stefan number, Reynolds number, thermal conductivity of PCM, arrangement of tubes, and the number of fins (Nfn). The motion of solid-liquid interface is analyzed. The results show that the heat transfer process can be significantly enhanced by the use of fins; The melting time of PCM in a two-fin unit could be reduced by 52.6% compared with a non-fin unit when the thermal conductivity of PCM is lower than 1.0 W/(m·K).
