Recent Advances, Development, and Impact of Using Phase Change
Conventional PCMs also have other drawbacks such as low thermal stability, thermal cycling, and low thermal conductivity [8, 9]. In addition, the super-cooling effect lowers
The two main advantages of employing phase change materials for thermal energy storage include: PCMs present a higher latent thermal energy storage capacity, compared to the thermal energy storage capacity of water. In fact, PCMs can store more energy per unit mass compared to water. This allows for more compact.
Nowadays, a wide variety of applications deal with energy storage. Due to the intermittent nature of solar radiation, phase change materials are excellent options for use in several types of solar energy systems.
