Abstract
- •Thermal performance of horizontal coiled tube LHTS device was experimentally considered.•Both charging and discharging of PCM were investigated.•Effect of initial temperature and flow rate of HTF on PCM in melting and solidification was tested.•Initial temperature of HTF was significantly affected the melting process.•Optimum HTF flow rate for melting was determined and it was 3 L/h.
