The integration of a composite porous medium with phase change material (PCM) offers significant advantages in thermal management systems, enhancing heat transfer efficiency and addressing various regulation challenges. This approach utilizes the PCM's latent absorption enhanced conductivity provided by medium, resulting optimized system performance. Its applicability spans across electronics cooling building insulation systems. However, predicting behavior this is challenging, necessitating computational tools to anticipate its response under different conditions evaluate influence on strategies. objective study create tool specifically tailored constitutive parameters material, thereby providing comprehensive description behavior. To achieve goal, multiscale homogenization principle employed assess composite's effective thermophysical properties using representative volume element approach. repeating unit cell aluminum lattice incorporated into PCM define element. finite method (FEM) utilized solve three-dimensional problem, yielding an orthotropic due inherent symmetry cell. Moreover, leverages apparent capacity effectively manage transitions within domain, utilizing smooth temperature-dependent functions accurately describe PCM. Integrating battery pack management, thoroughly examines dynamics comparing outcomes without integration. transient problem tackled FEM, employing evaluated homogenized minimize effort. results indicate notable decline highest temperatures pack, leading reduction about 14 °C at specific moment when fully liquid form. obtained emphasize effectiveness practical feasibility proposed strategy. modeling presented provides robust reducing time for analyzing large models, as utilization technique notably decreases time.
