Abstract

The encapsulation technique is one way to use latent heat storage material in a solar water heater tank. In this technique, several capsules may be arranged in the tank. In this study, the capsules were installed along the cross-section of the tank. There has been no discussion of which part of the capsule position has optimal heat energy with a capsule arrangement. Proper placement of the capsule arrangement can result in optimal thermal energy storage in the tank. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of installing capsules in a tank with different positions in terms of thermal energy storage. The study used an active solar water heater. The 24 capsules containing paraffin wax were arranged in a tank. The solar simulator was used as a heat source for the collector, and it was set at 1000 W/m2. The flow rate of water was 2 liters/minute. During the charging process, the water and paraffin wax temperature was recorded. The temperature evolution of water and paraffin wax obtained were used to analyze the thermal energy content. The results showed that the average heating rate for water and paraffin wax was 0.246 °C/min and 0.254 °C/min, respectively, so the capsule arrangement served as a suitable heat exchanger. The capsules installed at the top had an average heating rate increase of 111.4% compared to those at the bottom. Therefore, mounting the capsule at the top of the tank was more effective than placing it at the bottom.

Abstract

The use of a spray-dryer is very popular in the drying process in the food and beverage industry. However, due to the properties of the sensitive product that the quality will degrade in drying at high temperature, the innovative design of spray-dryer is developed which can increase the heat transfer rate at moderate temperature. This research was conducted to develop a spray-dryer design to improve thermal-hydraulic performance, with a high transfer rate and low-pressure drop at such a temperature. The design varies by several inlets categorized as design A with one inlet, design B with two inlets, and design C with three inlets. This simulation uses ANSYS FLUENT17, and the independence of the mesh was evaluated to improve the result of the simulation. The efficient mesh number is obtained from the independence of the mesh at around one million. The result shows that design C has the lowest pressure loss and the highest transfer rate due to high vortex and swirl flow generation, improving the mixture quality and direct contact between droplet and dry-air.
