Thermodynamic optimization of the thermal process in energy storage using multiple phase change materials.
Author(s) : GONG Z. X., MUJUMDAR A. S.
Type of article: Article
Summary
The article presents a thermodynamic analysis of the energy charge/discharge processes in a latent heat thermal storage system using multiple phase change materials (PCMs). Analytical results show that the exergy efficiency can be enhanced dramatically using multiple PCMs compared with a single PCM. Illustrative results are presented and discussed in terms of their potential applications in efficient thermal storage devices.
