2.14 Latent Heat Storage Systems

open access: yes, 2018
Thermal energy storage is a key technology to address the challenges in the transition to a low carbon energy system. Latent heat storage (LHS) is one of these technologies that have special features of enabling isothermal and compact storage.

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: 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 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.
