“…When the cell surface temperature reaches to the melting point of PCM it starts absorbing latent heat from the cell, maintaining its temperature close to its melting point. Conventionally, the use of PCM has been extensively researched for space cooling and thermal energy storage applications [67][68][69][70]. However, PCM-based cooling has recently received a lot of attention for battery cooling applications.…”

The thermal concerns, such as capacity loss, uneven temperature distribution and thermal runaway of the battery packs made of lithium-ion batteries (LIB) used in electric vehicles (EV), limits its applicability, especially in situations of high-power demand. This article analyses the causes of heat generation in lithium-ion battery packs, focusing on their dominance over total heat generation. It discusses the thermal issues arising from heat generation, their root causes, and influencing parameters. Further, it examines the effect of cooling systems on peak battery temperature and temperature uniformity, as well as their design, operating, and performance parameters. The review suggests that, when designing a cooling system, entropic heating should be considered alongside Joule heating during low discharge rates and high temperatures, which are the conditions that prevail when an EV cruises on highways in hot weather. Capacity fade of battery is caused by temperature-dependent factors such as the growth of the SEI layer, rise in separator resistance, and active material loss. Hence an effective battery cooling system should maintain a temperature range of 15°C to 35°C and ‘ΔTmax’ below 6°C. Out of the reviewed cooling systems, air cooling is found to be simple and cost effective, but inefficient for large battery packs. PCM based cooling technique offers greater temperature uniformity but is sensitive to melting point. Liquid cooling is most efficient but adds cost and complexity. Evaporative cooling can serve as a middle ground between air and liquid cooling with further research to put it into practice. The future research in battery thermal management may focus lowering the energy consumption of the cooling systems by taking into account, the precise cooling needs as per the modes of battery operation.

The utilization of phase change materials (PCMs) in solar water heating systems (SWHS) has undergone notable advancements, driven by a rising demand for systems delivering superior performance and efficiency. Extensive research suggests that enhancing heat transfer (HTE) in storage systems is crucial for achieving these improvements. This review employs a bibliometric analysis to track the evolution of HTE methods within this field. While current literature underscores the necessity for further exploration into hot water generation applications, several methodologies exhibit significant promise. Particularly, strategies such as fins, encapsulation, and porous media emerge as prominent HTE techniques, alongside nanofluids, which hold the potential for augmenting solar water heating systems. This review also identifies numerous unexplored techniques awaiting investigation, aiming to pave new paths in research and application within the field of hot water generation. It highlights methods that could be used independently or alongside predominantly used techniques.

“…These techniques include extended surfaces, multiple PCM, heat pipes, an addition of nanomaterial to PCM, and encapsulation of PCM [3]. Several techniques were reported in the literature, which focus on the Thermal characteristics of PCM to increase the rate of charging and solidification in triple pipe heat exchangers [4,5]. The following section focuses on the work carried out by various authors to perk up the PCM melting and discharging by the use of a triplex tube heat exchanger (TTHX).…”

The energy storage capacity of latent heat thermal energy storage systems is high therefore these systems are efficient among all other thermal heat storage. This study experimentally investigates the charging and solidification of stearic acid (C18H36O2) in the finned triplex pipe heat exchanger with holes on the fin surface. The melting and discharging of stearic acid are carried out at steady inlet heat transfer fluid (HTF) i.e., water temperature. This study also investigates the result of the change in HTF flow rate on solidification and melting of phase change material. Finally, the study focuses on the comparison of average effectiveness for finned triplex tube heat exchanger and finned triplex tube with cylindrical holes on fin surface with rates of 0.33 and 0.43 Kg/s. The results showed that the average effectiveness with a finned triplex tube with a perforated fin surface is 4% more than that of a finned triplex tube at 0.33 Kg/s whereas it is 5 % more at 0.43 Kg/s during the charging process. On the other side during discharging process average effectiveness is 14 % more at 0.33 Kg/s and 11 % at 0.43 Kg/s.
