Which phase change materials are used in cold energy storage?

The main content of this paper is a comprehensive introduction to recent studies of cold energy storage technology using the solid–liquid phase change materials including heat exchanger types, phase change materials whose phase change temperatures are in the range of 7–14 °C and the heat transfer fluid used in the heat exchangers.

What is cold energy storage?

Cold energy storage is an effective way to relieve the gap between energy supply and demand. It can be seen that air conditioner cold storage technology is a critical technique to realize the utilization of new energy sources and energy savings. Generally, liquid–solid phase change material (PCM) is the main type of energy storage material.

Can phase change materials be used in thermal storage?

There are many reviews on phase change materials, but most of them are about the application of phase change materials in the field of thermal storage.

What is latent heat storage?

For latent heat storage, energy transfer occurs when a material undergoes phase change from one state to another.

Is thermochemical storage a promising method of cold storage?

Thermochemical storage is a promising method of cold storage due to its high energy storage density, however, there are few research results put out, which is a great pity. It is believed that the method of cold storage using thermochemical storage will draw on the interest of more researchers.

What are the different methods of cold storage?

The cold storage medium The basic methods of cold storage include sensible heat storage, latent heat storage and thermochemical storage. For the sensible heat storage, liquid water is the main medium of cold storage and its applications are restrict due to the disadvantage of low energy storage and large occupation of space.
