Underfloor heating with latent heat storage

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part A: Journal of Power and Energy, 2001
Underfloor heating is known for its comfort due to the low and favourable temperature gradient in the heated space above the large floor area available for heating. This paper addresses the idea of improving the existing underfloor heating system by using an encapsulated phase change material (PCM) that melts and solidifies at ...

Underground Storage of Latent Heat: Theory and Experiments

2018
Thermal heat storage in the subsurface can be in the form of latent heat. In this way heat can be stored in the form of ice, where heat is stored when ice melts, and heat is extracted by ice formation. We investigate the use of a borehole device for heat exchange with the subsurface.

Heat transfer in a latent heat-storage system

Energy, 1989
The heat-recovery rate has been determined in a latent-heat storage unit using Na2HPO4 · 12H2O as a heat-storage medium. The effects of the liquid flow rate and inlet temperature of the heat-transfer fluid on the heat-recovery rate have been determined. The heat-recovery rate decreases sharply at the beginning of the heat-recovery stage.

Latent Heat Storage: Storage Materials, Heat Transfer, and Applications

ChemBioEng Reviews, 2017
AbstractPhase change materials are frequently used in thermal storage systems due to their large latent heat und isothermal nature. This paper discusses different phase change materials. Techniques for improving their thermophysical properties are highlighted. Their corrosive effects on the stability of construction materials are approached.

Latent Heat Storage for Solar Still Applications

2019
Water is critical and inevitable for all forms of life, which is available in copious but not suitable for direct ingestion. Also, the existing technologies are costly, bungling, and energy inefficient. They trip on fossils fuel which is infecting. The technology we are considering here exploits direct solar energy for water desalination.

Latent heat storage applied to horticulture

Solar Energy, 1982
Abstract A new concept of solar heat storage applied to horticulture has been tested through a full heating season in a professional greenhouse. This experiment is run in a 500 m 2 multi-span, single-glazed greenhouse of traditional geometry devoted to rose production.

Latent heat storage in building materials

Energy and Buildings, 1993
Abstract Thermal storage is an important aspect of energy conservation which is greatly assisted by the incorporation of latent heat storage in building products. This can be achieved by the use of various phase change materials (PCMs) which absorb and release heat much more effectively than conventional building materials.
