This thesis introduces a mathematical and numerical analyses of the thermal performance of a packed bed containing spherical capsules filled with phase change material (PCM) during charging and discharging process for latent cool thermal energy storage . According to the energy balance on the PCM and the heat transfer fluid (HTF) , the governing equations and boundary conditions are derived at transient conditions and used a continuous phase model in this model the spherical capsules are assumed to behave as a continuous medium and not as a medium composed of independent particles
