Utilization of phase change materials in solar domestic hot water systems

Mazman, Muhsin; Cabeza, Luisa F.; Mehling, Harald; … - In: Renewable Energy 34 (2009) 6, pp. 1639-1643

sensible heat in water for short term applications. Adding PCM (phase change material) modules at the top of the water tank … would give the system a higher storage density and compensate heat loss in the top layer because of the latent heat of PCM … University of Lleida, Spain. In this work, new PCM-graphite compounds with optimized thermal properties were used, such as 80 …
