It was analyzed the behavior of hexahydrate magnesium chloride (MgCl 2 * 6H 2 O) as a thermal energy storage, which has a phase transition temperature of 117° C and is becoming a material with great potential in the application of medium temperature (industrial applications). It was developed a simulation using the CFD software FLUENT to describe the melting / solidification of the hydrated salt. It was observed the effect of the use of fins and buoyant forces produced by gravitational effects.
