Heat transfer fins can be used to improve the operation performance of heat storage tanks using phase change filling material (PCM). Based on the COMSOL software, the effects of annular heat transfer fin's parameters (fin length, fin thickness and fin angle) on charging performance of a double-tube PCM heat storage tank is preliminarily evaluated. The results show that, when the fin length increases from 1.0 m to 1.2 m, the total melting time of the filling material shortens from 8 h to 5 h. When the fin thickness increases from 40 mm to 60 mm, the total melting time of the filling material decreases from 10 h to about 6 h, and the average charging rate increases from 11.3×108 kJ/h to 14.8×108 kJ/h. When the fin angle is –15°, the tank has the shortest total melting time and the maximum average charging rate, which is 14.3×108 kJ/h. For the double-tube PCM tank investigated in this study, the optimal fin angle is -15°. The results can provide basis for the design of double-tube PCM heat storage tanks for CSP plants.
