Determination of the Heat Storage Capacity of Pcm and Pcm-objects as a Function of Temperature
Phase change materials (PCM) are thermal storage materials with a high storage density for small temperature range applications. One such application is the storage of natural cold of the night to use during daytime, called “free cooling”. Very high energy efficiency can be reached as the cold has not to be generated. Those systems are especially interesting for lightweight buildings, which hea...
متن کاملPCM storage system with integrated active heat pipe
The use of the latent heat of phase change materials (PCM) is considered a promising approach to store heat at a nearly constant temperature for direct steam generation (DSG), but the poor thermal conductivity of commonly available storage materials imposes severe limitations on storage performance. A new method is proposed to overcome the limitations of the low thermal conductivity. The approa...
متن کاملWorking Fluid Selection for Low Temperature Solar Thermal Power Generation with Two-stage Collectors and Heat Storage Units
Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) is named for its use of an organic, high molecular mass fluid that boils at a lower temperature than the water. Among many well-proven technologies, the ORC is one of the most favorable and promising ways for low-temperature applications. In comparison to water, organic fluids are advantageous when the plant runs at low temperature or low power. The ORC is scalable t...
متن کاملStudy on the Performance of a Ground Source Heat Pump System Assisted by Solar Thermal Storage
A ground source heat pump system (GSHPS) utilizes a relatively stable underground temperature to achieve energy-saving for heating and cooling in buildings. However, continuous long-term operation will reduce the soil temperature in winter, resulting in a decline in system performance. In this research, in order to improve the system performance of a GSHPS, a ground heat pump system integrated ...
متن کاملNumerical Modelling of Solar Heat Storage Using Large Arrays of Borehole Heat Exchangers
The storage of surplus heat in the underground and retrieval when required is a promising method for optimizing the energy efficiency of new housing estates. A new approach for the coupled numerical modelling of such problems will be presented. Here, the energy simulation software TRNSYS is directly coupled with the finite element subsurface flow and transport simulation software FEFLOW. This w...
