Numerical method for calculating latent heat storage inconstructions containing phase change

, 2009
Køling af kontorbygninger om sommeren bidrager væsentligt til elforbruget i Danmark. Udnyttelsen af faseskiftende materiale (PCM) kan bidrage til at reducere overtemperaturer om sommeren og udjævne temperatursvingninger i løbet af døgnet, hvorved behovet for både opvarmning og køling i bygninger kan reduceres. Denne artikel beskriver en numerisk metode

REVIEW ON LATENT HEAT STORAGE AND PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH PHASE CHANGE MATERIALS

International Journal of Research in Engineering and Technology, 2015
Energy storage devices have important role in the energy system as they minimize the mismatch between the supply and demand. This leads to improvement of the performance and the reliability of the systems. In thermal energy storage systems the Latent heat type thermal energy storages (LHTES) are attractive since they have high energy storage density ...
