High-Temperature Phase Change Materials (PCM) Candidates for Thermal Energy Storage (TES) Applications

Technical Report Gomez, J C

It is clearly understood that lower overall costs are a key factor to make renewable energy technologies competitive with traditional energy sources. Energy storage technology is one path to increase the value and reduce the cost of all renewable energy supplies. Concentrating solar power (CSP) technologies have the ability to dispatch electrical output to match peak demand periods by employingthermal energy storage (TES). Energy storage technologies require efficient materials with high energy density. Latent heat TES systems using phase change material (PCM) are useful because of their ability to charge and discharge a large amount of heat from a smallmore »« less

A study of the optimal transition temperature of PCM (phase change material) wallboard for solar energy storage

Technical Report Drake, J. B.

In this report, we consider the performance of wallboard impregnated with phase change material. An ideal setting is assumed and several measures of performance discussed. With a definition of optimal performance given, the performance with respect to variation of transition temperature is studied. Results are based on computer simulations of PCM wallboard with a standard stud wall construction. We find the diurnal heat capacity to be overly sensitive to numerical errors for use in PCM applications. The other measures of performance, diurnal effectiveness, net collected to storage ratio, and absolute discharge flux, all indicate similar trends. It is shown thatmore »« less

Radiation induced melting of a semitransparent vertical slab of phase-change material

Conference Diaz, L A ; Viskanta, R - Alternative Energy Sources; (United States)

In this paper the results of an experimental investigation of the radiative melting of a vertical slab of semitransparent phase-change material (PCM) which results in an unstable hydrodynamic condition giving rise to natural convection fluid motion. The experiment was motivated by the need of preliminary groundwork and initiative for further investigations into this type of a phase-change problem, which is of importance in many and widely varied fields of technology. Among the applications of the melting of a vertical slab of PCM is the latent-heat solar wall used in passive solar housing. Here the use of a semitransparent material inmore »« less
