Abstract
nPhase-Changing Materials (PCM) are currently being investigated for use as heat storage in solar energy applications. To analyze the temperature profile, morphing tree structures are used to simulate the melting algorithm of Phase Changing Material with increasing branch numbers. The melting behavior is simulated for invading lines of heat, which range from single-lined, zero branch insertions, to insertions with two branched lines. The research aims to address the growing demand for efficient and sustainable energy storage solutions by exploring innovative techniques in PCM technology. Additionally, the study discusses the potential applications and implications of PCM with multiple node injections in various industries, including building energy management, solar thermal systems, and automotive cooling. Cold water will flow through pipes in this application, rising in temperature as it passes from underneath the collector. After that, these pipes would go through the PCM-containing storage tank, melting the material as it got near to its specific heat. The heat transferred through a PCM is simulated based on a linear mesh model and the T-shaped Tree model, utilizing MATLAB with time as a parameter. Based on the obtained results of these simulations, it can be found that the fastest melting can be achieved with the highest numbers of branching.
