A New Approach of Solidification Analysis in Modular Latent Thermal Energy Storage Unit Based on Image Processing
Abstrakt
The solidification process of RT18HC in a cylindrical shell and tube storage unit has been studied using a new methodology based on image processing. The main idea of the algorithm is to label the region of solidification and use statistical functions to calculate the dimensions of the solidification front over time. Said analysis includes two methods. The first method is to measure the solid fraction changes during solidification. The novelty of this method, as compared to other literature findings, is that pre-processing and calculation process occurs automatically via a calculation algorithm. This method is used to calculate the solid fraction of RT18HC which is reported to be a bit fast at the beginning that 40 % of its volume solidified in 1000 s while the rest of the process is completed in almost 6500 s. The second method is used to measure and calculate the thickness of the solid front by using image processing. This method’s error is calculated to be less than 7% throughout the entire process. The second method also acts as an experimental database of front thickness to use in a novel, simplified, semi-theoretical model proposed to calculate the solid front thickness as a function of time in this paper. It is also worth presenting solution extended by a general definition of thermal resistance for a cylindrical partition. The above study will enable the development of an enhanced and optimized model for complex geometries based on image processing techniques in the future. It will also allow the investigation of both processes i.e. solidification and melting alongside other influencing parameters such as the geometry of the storage unit in future.
