Underground Storage of Latent Heat: Theory and Experiments
2018Thermal 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.

Latent Heat Storage: Storage Materials, Heat Transfer, and Applications
ChemBioEng Reviews, 2017AbstractPhase 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.

Heat Transfer Enhancement in Latent Heat Storage Units
11th AIAA/ASME Joint Thermophysics and Heat Transfer Conference, 2014In the present work, latent heat thermal storage devices that use an array of fins are studied experimentally and theoretically. The thermal storage charging/discharging process is driven by a hot/cold heat transfer fluid (HTF) flowing inside the tube from which heat is conducted to the fins that are in contact with the bulk of the PCM inside a ...

Chapter 10. Latent Heat Storage Devices
2021Successful utilisation of a phase change material (PCM) depends on the design of a storage device which provides not only the containment of the PCM but also means for charging and discharging through, for example, heat transfer fluid (HTF). A typical PCM based latent heat storage device is often made of various components, and it can only function ...

Heat transfer in a latent heat-storage system
Energy, 1989The 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 applied to horticulture
Solar Energy, 1982Abstract 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 for Solar Still Applications
2019Water 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 in building materials
Energy and Buildings, 1993Abstract 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.
