将金属基体插入相变材料中以增强相变过程中的传热。金属基体倾向于充当从加热表面到冷却表面的传热翅片，并增加相变流体的有效导热系数。这项研究的范围包括对冻结和熔化过程中与水环绕的恒温圆柱管之间的传热进行数值模拟。比较了金属基体和非金属基体的传热情况，并对不同孔隙率和密度的金属基体进行了检测。根据金属基体作为强化传热装置的有效性，对结果进行了讨论。 关键词:热流，金属，改变物理状态，材料，散热片，导热系数，比较，性能，计算，模型科学:研讨会，ASHRAE Trans。1994年，第100卷，第2部分

A metal matrix is inserted into a phase-change material to enhance the heat transfer during phase-change processes. The metal matrix tends to act like a heat transfer fin from the heated to cooled surface and to increase the effective thermal conductivity of the phase-change fluid. The scope of the study involves numerically modelling the heat transfer to and from constant-temperature cylindrical tubes surrounded by water during the freezing and melting processes. Comparisons of heat transfer with and without the metal matrix are made, with different porosities and densities of the metal matrix being examined. The results are discussed in terms of the effectiveness of the metal matrix as a heat transfer enhancement device.KEYWORDS: heat flow, metals, changing physical state, materials, fins, thermal conductivity, comparing, performance, calculating, models
