This project explores the simulation of phase change material (PCM) melting within a 2D cavity, utilizing internal fins and nanoparticles to enhance thermal performance. The cavity, measuring 20mm in width and filled with paraffin wax, features a left wall and fin maintained at a constant temperature of 350K, while the right wall is kept at 300K, with other walls insulated. Simulations conducted over 375 seconds revealed that heat transfer occurs due to a temperature gradient, initiating phase change once the PCM reaches its melting temperature. Results indicated that 35.65% of the material was melted by the end of the simulation, providing critical insights into heat transfer efficiency and the influence of design parameters on PCM behavior in thermal systems.
