Heating storage performance of a water tank–combined phase change material:An experimental case study

Water tank is a commonly used unit which has been frequently applied for thermal energy storage units. In order to enhance the thermal performance of the water tank, the phase change material is utilized by embedding paraffin into water tank. But the key question is whether a competitive charging co...
