Review of Phase Change Materials Based on Energy Storage System with Applications

Abstract

Abstract. The use of Different types of storage system using phase change materials (PCMs) is an effective way of storing energy and also to make advantages ofheating and cooling systems are installed to maintain temperatures within the well-being zone. PCMs have been extensively used in various storage systems for heat pumps, solar engineering, and thermal control applications. The use of PCM's for heating and cooling applications have been investigated during the past decade. There are large numbers of PCM's, which melt and solidify at a wide range of temperatures, making them attractive in a number of applications. This paper also outline the investigation and analysis of Phase Change materials used in Different Types of storage systems with different applications.

Phase Change Materials in Metal Casting Processes: A Critical Review and Future Possibilities

“…Phase change materials have appreciably more densities of thermal energy storage in comparison to materials having sensible heat [20,21]. With an escalation in the number of effluent gases in the world, scientists are now active on the search for sustainable energy storage forms [22].…”

TES Nanoemulsions: A Review of Thermophysical Properties and Their Impact on System Design

“…The characteristics of availability, non-toxicity, low environmental footprint, and cost effectiveness complete these requirements. PCM-in-water emulsions, hydrate slurries, and microencapsulated stabilized PCM suspensions are the three primary forms of phase change slurries used for thermal control [11].…”

“…The dispersion of liquid droplets stabilized by a surfactant (in order to reduce coalescence, aggregation, and further particle interactions) within another heat transfer liquid further enhances the heat transport due to their high mobility and diffusivity [38,39]. The small volume changes and temperature differences between their charge/discharge cycles; high surface area per unit volume, sometimes exceeding 10 m 2 /cm 3 [40]; and enhanced thermo-physical properties, such as thermal conductivity, specific heat capacity, or latent heat (leading to the increased heat transfer efficiency of the storage system, increased availability, and reduced costs), define nanoemulsions as materials with great potential in TES and heat enhancement applications [11][12][13][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30].…”

“…Since the potential for energy storage is much larger if a PCM is used, numerous studies have focused on different phase-changeable heat transfer nanostructured fluidsnamely, solid-liquid fluids (e.g., water-in-PAO [57] and paraffin-in-water nanoemulsions [11,58,138,140]) or liquid-vapor fluids (e.g., ethanol in PAO [73]).…”

Emerging applications of phase change materials: A concise review of recent advances

“…The encapsulation is a procedure of offering a support structure to PCM to inhibit its interaction with the surrounding, 10 and are rising the heat transfer, managing the changes in the storage material sizes and reducing the PCM reactivity regarding the outside surroundings. The PCMs are encapsulated in clear design closed vessel with metal or plastic materials 129 . The various design has been extensively reviewed 130,131 .…”
