“…Among the TES, latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) systems have several advantages: compactness, heat storage at (almost) constant temperature and high heat storage capacity [2]. Sharma et al [3] reviewed recent works dealing with SAC coupled to LHTES, highlighting the great diversity of designs of SAC and LHTES, and of applications (among which comfort heating).…”

Opaque ventilated façades are increasingly used in building envelopes due to their potential to reduce summer overheating. During cold seasons, such façades can be used to preheat air before indoor blowing. However, to overcome the mismatch between energy supply and demand, using thermal energy storage may be appropriate. This work investigates the experimental thermal behavior of opaque ventilated façade coupled to latent heat thermal energy storage. The experimental set-up includes a mobile and tilting façade, an air/PCM heat exchanger and a ventilation unit. This system is instrumented with numerous thermocouples, heat flux sensors, mass flow sensors and anemometers. The system is tested in the campus of Université Bretagne Sud (Lorient, France) under various weather and operating conditions. The measurements are analyzed in detail to assess the thermal performance of the system, particularly the energy collected by the façade and the energy stored by the system.

Solar heat is an attractive alternative in industrial processes. However, the intermittent and stochastic nature of solar energy necessitates the use of heat storage systems to bridge the gap between heat production and demand. This study introduces a validated numerical analysis approach to investigate the performance of latent storage tanks filled with spherical phase-change materials. A 1D thermal model is developed to describe the charging processes of adipic acid as PCM. The study examines the performance characteristics of latent heat storage in terms of stored energy and duration through parametric investigations. For mass flow rates ranging from 600 to 1000 kg/h, storage durations were found to vary from 440 to 582 min. The storage duration decreased significantly from approximately 1150 min at a charging temperature of 160 °C to 470 min at a charging temperature of 240 °C. The bed porosity affected the storage process, with a porosity of 0.5 achieving a thermal energy storage of around 344 MJ but requiring a longer charging time of about 610 min. Higher heating rates allowed for lower storage durations, with storage durations of approximately 460 min for a heating rate of 3 °C/min, compared to 660 min, for a heating rate of 0.5 °C/min.
