Experimental Study on Two PCM Macro-Encapsulation Designs in a Thermal Energy Storage Tank

The use of latent heat thermal energy storage is an effective way to increase the efficiency of energy systems due to its high energy density compared with sensible heat storage systems. The design of the storage material encapsulation is one of the key parameters that critically affect the heat tra...
