Experimental Analysis of Salt Hydrate Latent Heat Thermal Energy Storage System With Porous Aluminum Fabric and Salt Hydrate as Phase Change Material With Enhanced Stability and Supercooling

Journal Article Kumar, Navin ; Von Ness, Ryan ; Chavez, Reynaldo ; ... - Journal of Energy Resources Technology

Phase change materials (PCMs), especially salt hydrates possess high volumetric energy storage capacity in their transition temperature range. These materials are used in applications where it is necessary to store thermal energy due to temporary load shift between demand and availability. Thus, possible applications are HVAC, recovery of waste heat, and defense thermal management. Despite salt hydrates potential, the practical feasibility of latent heat storage with salt hydrates is limited due to low power rating, supercooling, phase segregation, and long-term stability. Its low power rating and long-term stability limits its application in most applications. This work experimentally validates the stabilitymore »« less

Optimization of a class of latent thermal energy storage systems with multiple phase-change materials

Journal Article Aceves, S M ; Nakamura, H ; Reistad, G M ; ... - Journal of Solar Energy Engineering

This paper presents an analysis of a class of latent thermal energy storage (LTES) system. The analysis is based on a simplified model that allows the system performance to be evaluated in terms of a small set of parameters, while still retaining the main thermodynamic aspects associated with their operation. This analysis therefore permits the broad-based application potential of these systems to be viewed. The paper also discusses the applicability of the model to practical systems. This paper analyzes LTES with multiple energy storage cells and multiple phase-change materials (PCMs). The most general case of infinite energy storage cells andmore »« less

Mathematical modeling of phase change processes for latent heat thermal energy storage

Technical Report Solomon, A D

The discussion is a meld of two areas moving boundary problems of phase-change processes and latent heat thermal energy storage. Each has come into its own in recent years. Interest in moving boundary problems had been relatively dormant from the mid 1950s until the early 1970s when new applications and techniques stimulated a broad and continuing research effort. Latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) concepts date back to the early 1950s but have only recently become attractive and worthy of consideration on economic grounds because of the expandng energy crisis. The discussion is in two parts. In the first somemore »« less
Compact latent-heat thermal storage systems utilizing phase changes within the temperature range of 320 K and 340 K. Final report (in German)

Technical Report Stall, J ; Hennemann, B

The experimental design of small-scale solar heat storage systems is described which utilize the phase changes of certain organic or inorganic compounds in accordance with endothermal or exothermal conditions, i.e. heat input or output. Paraffin waxes, natural fats, etc. were tested for their suitability as heat storage media. Tests showed that such a system is feasible for domestic use but that a low-cost heat storage medium must be found with an enthalpy change within a narrow temperature band and phase changes comparable with paraffin wax. Other 'cushion' materials besides polyethylene, nylon, and aluminum foil must be investigated.
