Are phase change material candidates for latent heat thermal energy storage (lhtes)?

Jayathunga DS, Karunathilake HP, Narayana M, Witharana S. Phase change material (PCM) candidates for latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) in concentrated solar power (CSP) based thermal applications—a review.

What is phase change material (PCM) thermal energy storage?

Phase change material (PCM) thermal energy storage (TES) technology is a sustainable energy savings option that is especially lucrative in building energy management. PCM (s) can be applied directly for free cooling to reduce the building energy requirement for air conditioning.

How can phase change materials help a low carbon/green campaign?

Reutilization of thermal energy according to building demands constitutes an important step in a low carbon/green campaign. Phase change materials (PCMs) can address these problems related to the energy and environment through thermal energy storage (TES), where they can considerably enhance energy efficiency and sustainability.

Do nano-enhanced phase change material thermal energy storage heat exchanger units save power?

The use of nano-enhanced phase change material thermal energy storage heat exchanger unit coupled to an air conditioner yielded 7.41% power savings when 5% Cu NPs were used compared to 7.18% power savings when the base PCM only was used .

Can nanocomposite-PCM be used in thermal energy storage?

The study produced, a practically usable nanocomposite-PCM from an inorganic phase change material sp26 by adding, disodium hydrogen phosphate, and graphene nanoplatelets. The prepared PCM composite is for use in thermal energy storage for indoor temperature control applications to reduce the air conditioning energy demand.

What are latent heat inorganic phase change materials?

Latent heat inorganic phase change materials can capture the cold from cold ambient air at night which can be used for free-cooling of inlet indoor air during the day thereby reducing the required AC power consumption and saving energy .
