A numerical analysis of melting of an organic phase change material (PCM) in a square
thermal energy storage (TES) capsule with an array of high voltage wire electrodes has …

Convection is a fundamental fluid transport phenomenon, where the large-scale motion of a
fluid is driven, for example, by a thermal gradient or an electric potential. Modelling …

Electrohydrodynamics (EHD) is a multidisciplinary science that focuses on the interaction
between fluid motion and the electric field [1]. Practical EHD applications attract extensive …

In this paper, we developed a unified lattice Boltzmann model (LBM) to simulate
electroconvection in a dielectric liquid induced by unipolar charge injection. Instead of …

This article presents a numerical algorithm for electro-thermoconvective phenomena in a
dielectric liquid confined between two parallel plates. The liquid is under the simultaneous …

Two-dimensional numerical simulations are carried out to examine the problem of transient
electroconvection stability of dielectric liquids subjected to unipolar injection. The entire set …

A numerical investigation of electro-thermo-convection in a 2-D differentially heated square
cavity filled with a dielectric liquid is presented. Fully coupled governing equations of electric …

Recent experimental results demonstrate that electric field can effectively decrease the
melting time of dielectric Phase Change Materials (PCMs). In this study, a Finite-Volume …

We numerically investigated the global linear instability and bifurcations in electro-thermo-
convection (ETC) of a dielectric liquid confined in a two-dimensional (2-D) concentric …

Numerical investigations of non-isothermal melting of a dielectric PCM under the combined
influence of buoyancy and electric forces have been performed. The coupled set of …
