Thermal design and operation of a portable phase change material (PCM) cooler
The objectives are to design a portable cooler that contains Phase Change Materials for usage in an enclosed space as a replacement for air-conditioners, to analyze and study the operation of the cooler using simple hand calculations and CFD software and to design a scale model of the cooler. The pr...
