I try to model solidification of PCM spheres using CFX. can i use k-epsilon model? i want to know the heat absorbed by the PCM. I tried using laminar, sst, and so far standard k-e converged faster even with big time steps. But i am not sure it is correct or not. PCM = phase change material PCM spheres = PCM encapsulated by hard case (hollow sphere) Please advise... thanks. Last edited by 4mr1; July 6, 2010 at 08:17.
