Latent Heat Storage with Phase Change Materials (PCMs) [PDF]

Journal of Technology Innovations in Renewable Energy, 2013
Latent heat thermal energy storage with phase change materials (PCMs) is attractive since providing a high energy density storage due to the phase change by solidification/melting at constant temperature. Relative to sensible heat energy storage systems, latent heat storage with PCMs requires a smaller weight and volume of material for a given amount ...
