报告内容提要：

The hybrid finite element model we developed is briefly introduced and applied to the heat transfer in Phase Change Materials (PCM). It is noted that the melting efficiency is often limited by the low thermal conductivity of PCMs. As a part of this work, numerical simulation is carried out for analyzing the enhanced heat transfer in the metal honeycomb foam system filled with PCMs. In the present PCM/FOAM model, octadecane is used as PCM, and the metal honeycomb foam with 96% porosity is employed as enhancer to improve the heat transfer performance in the PCM and accelerate its melting. The PCM/FOAM model is heated on one of surfaces with a constant heat flux so that the PCM can be heated from the solid state to the pure liquid state. The enhanced heat transfer in the PCM/FOAM model is numerically determined by the finite element technique. The numerical results obtained are compared with those for the pure PCM to illustrate the enhancing effect due to the presence of metal foam. Results show that the overall heat transfer rate can be increased by about 100% due to the addition of metal foam. Finally, the comparative analysis is carried out for different metal matrix materials and PCMs.

Qing-Hua Qin received his Bachelor of Engineering degree in mechanical engineering from Chang An University and earning his Master of Science degree and PhD degree from Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) in China. Both MS and PhD are in applied mechanics. He joined the Department of Mechanics as an associate lecturer at HUST in 1984. After spending ten years lecturing at HUST, he was awarded a DAAD/K.C. Wong research fellowship in 1994, which enabled him to work at the University of Stuttgart in Germany for nine months. In 1995 he left HUST to take up a postdoctoral research fellowship at Tsinghua University, China, where he worked until 1997. He was awarded a Queen Elizabeth II fellowship in 1997 and a Professorial fellowship in 2002 at University of Sydney and stayed there till December 2003, both by the Australian Research Council, and is currently working as a professor, associate dean of the college, and group leader of materials and manufacturing group in the Research School of Engineering at the Australian National University, Australia. He was appointed a guest professor at HUST in 2000. He was also awarded a Cheung Kong Professorship at Tianjin University in 2001 from the Ministry of Education of China. He has published more than 300 journal papers and 8 English monographs in the field of applied mechanics.
