• Numerical study of a multiple-segment metal foam-PCM latent heat storage unit: Effect of porosity, pore density and location of heat source (2019, methodology): “In a separate study [22], they investigated the effects of the nanoparticles and fins addition on the solidification rate of PCMs and found that using fins improves the phase change rate better than alone nanoparticles or the combination of both.”
