Analysis of TES with PCM (Solid/Liquid) integrated in a residential system.

Number: pap. 2665

Author(s) : MA Z.

Summary

A theoretical analysis has been introduced on vapor compression systems integrated with thermal energy storage (TES) using phase change materials (PCM) as the storage media. The analysis is based on the first principle and the coefficient of performance definition for heat pumping systems. A general equation has been derived to describe the overall system COP for systems integrated with TES, which equation is linked to the COPs when charging the TES and discharging the TES. The model of a 10.5kW (3T) R410A residential system from production has been used as an example to derive the overall system COP when integrated with TES. Data generated from the modeling calculations have been presented to help answer whether TES integrated with vapor compression systems offers energy savings and under what conditions.
